About Knight's Tail
Sir Nutkin is the smallest knight of the Acorn Guard — and the realm's only hope. When an ancient shadow called the Blight shatters the Heartstone and scatters its eight shards across the land, its corruption twists the realm's noble guardians into servants of darkness — even Ember, the great dragon. Only by gathering every shard can Nutkin free the guardians, break the shadow's hold on Ember, and make the Heartstone whole to heal the land. Knight's Tail is a warm, storybook platformer built for quick play and big adventure: • RUN, JUMP & GLIDE through 8 hand-crafted worlds — castle ramparts, deep greenwood, windswept crags, jungle ruins, sunlit isles, frozen peaks, burning ashlands, and the volcanic Dark Tower. • SLING ACORNS and bounce on heads to battle a realm of shadow-corrupted foes. • FREE 8 GUARDIAN BOSSES — each a noble creature twisted by the Blight, each with its own painted reveal and a little story — then break the corruption gripping the great dragon. • COLLECT GOLDEN ACORNS hidden across every level to unlock the road ahead. • UPGRADE your hero in the shop: more hearts, a longer glide, triple-shot acorns, a magnet, and more. • PAINTERLY STORYBOOK ART and a fully voiced story — an opening tale, boss intros, and three endings to discover. • PLAY YOUR WAY — beat the game to unlock Hard and Expert modes for a real challenge. A modern little fable: the villain is the darkness, not the dragon — and the dragon becomes your friend. Gentle enough for kids to follow by pictures alone, with enough heart to win over grown-ups. No ads. No in-app purchases. No accounts. Just a brave little knight and a big quest. The journey begins now.
