This game is called "Young Knights". When I first looked at the name, I thought it was another kind of martial arts card that cheats krypton. But when I clicked on it, I found that it was idle, and it was free. There were no in-app purchases. I confirmed it three times, almost thinking that the developer was out of his mind. 😅
To be honest, any domestic martial arts that dares to do pure idleness these days will either make a shoddy plan and run away, or sell it as dog meat. However, the ink painting style of this game is really exquisite. It is not a perfunctory thing that just pastes a few materials and is done. The character drawing, scene switching, and even the combat special effects all have a hand-polished taste. When you hang up, you switch to the background, and when you come back, the villain on the interface is still meditating slowly and practicing. The sense of calmness that "people are in the world, time is passing" is 10,000 times more comfortable than those gadgets that pop up to recharge gift packs as soon as they are opened.
The gameplay is classic placement: collect food, push pictures, challenge the boss, accumulate equipment, and occasionally click on skills manually, no need to worry. For old social animals like us who are exhausted from moving bricks every day and just want to watch a few martial arts dreams before going to bed, this is simply nectar. 😭 Moreover, it has no mandatory PVP, no guilds, and no world chat to refresh the screen. You can quietly be a knight by yourself, teach a few bullies when you feel lazy, and hang up to drink tea when you are tired. Isn't this better than being chased and bitten by the rankings and combat power system?
It is said to be a journey of discovery of independent games. In fact, this game is considered a niche one, but I really think it deserves to be known by more people who don't play social media and don't spend money. If you're fed up with those mobile games that “you'll get beaten if you don't recharge” and just want to find a place to kill time, you can give it a try. Don't expect any 3A masterpiece, it's just a bowl of warm multigrain porridge, which is real and nourishes the stomach. 🍵
