Knights of Pen and Paper II: A Tabletop Adventure Brought to Life
Prepare to enter a realm of chivalry, class warfare, and offbeat pop culture references in Knights of Pen and Paper II. This turn-based, retro-style, pixel-art adventure is brimming with danger, intrigue, death, and saving throws.
In Knights of Pen and Paper II, you take on the role of a group of teenagers playing a classic pen and paper RPG. As both party and game master, you get to assemble both your characters and the challenges they will face. Choose among mighty classes like Wizard, Thief, or Warrior; proud races like Dwarf or Elf; and snark-slinging players like Goth, Lab Rat, or Rocker.
Once your party is assembled, it’s time to embark on a grand adventure. Choose quests and combat encounters, delve into dungeons, craft powerful items, and watch in horror as your muscle-bound barbarian rolls a one on his body check.
One of the things that makes Knights of Pen and Paper II so unique is its tongue-in-cheek humor. The game is full of clever pop culture references and witty dialogue that will make you chuckle. For example, one of the quests involves tracking down a stolen shipment of “Dungeons & Dragons” rulebooks.
But don’t let the humor fool you. Knights of Pen and Paper II is also a challenging and rewarding RPG. The combat is turn-based and strategic, and you’ll need to use all of your skills and abilities to overcome your enemies.
As you progress through the game, you’ll level up your characters and unlock new abilities. You’ll also be able to craft powerful items that will help you on your journey.
Knights of Pen and Paper II is a love letter to classic pen and paper RPGs. It captures the excitement and camaraderie of gathering around a table with friends to roll dice and tell stories. But it also adds its own unique twist with its charming pixel-art graphics, witty humor, and challenging combat.
