Review

BattleKnight is a Browser-Based MMORPG that allows you to assume the role of a Medieval Knight. Well, he isn't always a knight. Starting out, your ‘knight’ will be a knave, the medieval equivalent to new player in an MMO. You'll have a sword and a stack of silver to train skills or buy starter equipment, but otherwise you'll be thrown naked into the virtual text-based environment as you begin your journey toward becoming a real Knight.

This journey is accomplished by performing daily tasks, including going on missions (good or evil), duelling other knights for experience and silver, jousting, and working to earn additional silver and line your pockets. To help expedite the process you can purchase gems, which are used to unlock NPC help, potions, and features such as a premium account (30 gems for 30 days of premium). One of the advantages of a premium account versus a free one is that you get more points to conduct missions each day, and can work for more hours resulting in more silver potential each 24 hour period. 

The big focus in any game featuring Knights is fighting. In BattleKnight, fighting takes place primarily in three ways: missions, duels, and jousts. After completing a mission or duel, you'll be able to view the effects of the fight; who won, what kind of damage was done, how often blows were blocked. 

In the case of duels, there's an added visual layer, featuring two 3D models of knights hitting each other repeatedly with the same animations, until one of them groans and then drops dead. It's a nice idea, and the 3D animation looks nice for a browser game. Outside of fighting, one of the more inviting features is building up your estate and castle. As you progress through BattleKnight you can increase its appearance and also the benefits they give you. Hire guards to increase defence, buy training dummies to increase training proficiency, and so on. 

For people new to the browser gaming scene, BattleKnight is a great way to introduce one's self to the world of browser-games, especially since Knight-related concepts are so readily understood by most people, and many of the strategic elements will see fans of the genre fighting for riches and glory for months at a time.
