Evaluation
KnightShift is a classic RPG/RTS hybrid that launched on September 27, 2013 as a complete, self-contained package. The store description presents all game content — 24 RTS missions, 8 RPG chapters, skirmish maps, multiplayer, and over 2,000 items — as a finished product with no mention of planned expansions, DLC, or future updates. There is no DLC listed on the store. Developer communications since launch have been limited to platform maintenance: a Mac Wineskin port in January 2017 and a Linux compatibility update on June 4, 2021. Neither post hints at new content or ongoing development work beyond keeping the game functional on modern operating systems. The game shipped as a complete product and has received no post-launch content additions.

About this game
Do you like Real Time Strategy? or are Role Playing Games your preference…
Why not try both genres in one? … or even both separately? …
In one game: KnightShift!
In a mystical world beyond fantasy and imagination, where corruption and disaster go hand in hand, not all is as it seems. A dark adventure begins in the RPG part: divided into eight chapters of dungeons, rare treasures, very strange companions and gruesome opponents. Eight individually equipped characters are available to you in this action packed role-play. It is now down to you, the player to form your hero and help him to fame and victory.
As soon as Gallus has been freed he can get on with job of bringing Prince John back to his father's kingdom. Strategy begins here: with the support of your loyal subjects the fight against the powers of evil begins.
