Plan your next KNIGHTS session

Our independent guide shows how to deepen your KNIGHTS experience by observing built‑in mechanics, visual settings, and daily content. By comparing handcrafted and generated puzzles, testing move orders, and noting accessibility impacts, you can refine strategy without relying on undocumented shortcuts.

01 / THE GUIDE

Handcrafted vs. Generated Levels

Play a few early handcrafted stages, then a daily generated puzzle. Record differences in layout complexity and note how the same knight moves apply across both types.

  • Try rearranging the order of moves to discover alternative solutions.
  • Watch how an early move limits or opens options for later knights.

02 / THE GUIDE

Explore Multiple Solution Paths

Select a mid‑game level and deliberately try at least two distinct move orders. Observe how each path affects the final arrangement and which feels more efficient.

  • Begin with the early handcrafted levels to grasp basic movement patterns.
  • Observe recurring board shapes that appear in both handcrafted and generated stages.

03 / THE GUIDE

Test Color‑Blind Palette Impact

Switch between the default and color‑blind palettes on the same level. Note any changes in speed or accuracy when identifying knight colors.

  • Enable the color‑blind palette if distinguishing knight colors feels difficult.
  • Set the palette early to avoid confusion in later, more complex puzzles.

04 / THE GUIDE

Assess Audio Influence on Focus

Play a series of puzzles with the soundtrack on, then with it muted. Compare concentration levels and personal preference for background sound.

  • Play with the soundtrack on to maintain a steady, relaxed mindset.
  • Enjoy the soundtrack and sound effects at whatever level feels most relaxing.

05 / THE GUIDE

Verify Steam Cloud Synchronization

Enable Cloud saves, complete a level, then check whether your progress is retained when returning on another device.

  • Enable Steam Cloud to keep puzzle progress synchronized across devices.
  • Use Family Sharing so friends can try the game without purchasing a separate copy.
