Knighthood

Parents need to know that Knighthood is an adventure game for iOS and Android devices. Gameplay involves frequent battles against mythical creatures. Players use swords, punching, and other weapons and moves to try to knock out their opponent. Their injuries aren't really shown, though -- when defeated, opponents just fall to the ground. A narrator, Drakeson, walks players through the gameplay basics. Gamers can choose to watch an ad for a reward, but don't have to. They can purchase things like in-app currency packages and character skins, or earn currency and other items by playing the game. Protective gear for a knight is sold for real-world money, for instance, but some warrior-enhancing items can be bought with gems, which are given out occasionally in the game and sold in bundles that range from $1.99 to $99.99. Seven- or 30-day subscriptions that provide 50 gems daily are also available for $4.99 or $9.99.
