Spiral Knights

You play as a Spiral Knight stranded on an alien world, exploring the Clockworks beneath its surface in hopes of reaching the mysterious Core. The Clockworks’ levels change over time, offering new paths and encounters to discover. Descend through dungeon floors, fight monsters, solve puzzles and search for treasure. Combat is fast-paced, with weapons and gear shaping how you tackle enemies; the Arcade offers procedurally generated levels and encounters. Progress by finding resources and using them to forge and improve weapons and equipment. You can explore and fight alone or team up with other players, take on bosses, and join guilds.

Stranded on an alien world, the Spiral Knights fight through shifting Clockworks dungeons and build gear in search of its Core.
