About this game

Bucket Knight overview

Calling all pixel-loving platformer fans! Join the adventures of a valiant knight who’s not only out to find the Holy Grail but also has some bills to pay. In Bucket Knight, a classic run-and-gun game, you’ll guide our nameless yet courageous protagonist on a sacred quest to locate the coveted relic (and make a little cash on the side) to settle his loan!

Prepare to embark on thrilling escapades within treacherous dungeons teeming with traps, valuable treasures, and…unexpectedly, delicious food? Encounter a diverse array of enemies, eager to shoot, stab, explode, or even befriend you—well, scratch that last part, just shoot ’em all! You’ll be well-equipped to face the challenges ahead with a wide selection of weapons tailored to suit any honorable knight’s taste.

Beware of deadly traps that are best left far away from your abode (but might be handy for your ex’s place). Collect gold, gems, and treasures along the way because, let’s face it, even knights must face the realities of taxes, loans, and alimony. Prepare for an unforgettable pixelated journey filled with platforming thrills and retro charm in Bucket Knight!
