About

Knight of the Hamsters is a survival platformer pitting the brave knights of the Carrot Kingdom against the hamster horde. During the day, hamsters come to steal the King's carrots. The knight must prevent the carrots from being carried off or be defeated. When the dark of night falls and the blood moons rises a foul curse transforms the hamsters into bloodthirsty demons. To battle the growing menace, the knight can upgrade his weapons and armor or pay to open treasure chests filled with vitality and elixirs.
