GameRankings: 78%

RPGamer: 4.5/5
QUOTE
Knights is a shining example of the creativity that the game industry needs more of. It is without a doubt a must-have for RPGamers, especially those that enjoy unique, strategy-focused battle systems. Knights in the Nightmare is an incredibly creative and interesting experience that should not be missed by anyone remotely intrigued by the concept.


RPGFan: 82%

I only offer this one warning: be ready for a challenge. This is a difficult game, and you have to want to learn how the game works to enjoy it. Put in the effort, and you'll get a lot out of it. It may not be the best handheld strategy RPG on the market, but it's certainly the one that turned the genre on its head. I will not soon forget it, and if you take on this 20-hour-long DS game, I suspect you'll remember it fondly as well.


IGN: 8.8/10
QUOTE
It’s deep, and for some it’s going to be too much. For others though, this is the depth and strategy that is missing from current-day games. If you’re up for a truly original, genre-less experience that innovates and pushes players in a way few titles will, Knights in the Nightmare is meant for you.


Games Radar: 7/10
QUOTE
It just tries to do too much, so instead of a historic must-play that changes the genre forever, we get a quirky, worthwhile oddity.


Game Informer: 7/10, 6/10
Edge: 6/10

Fixed, but glad to see that for the most part Kitten is being received well. It truly is a unique blend of RPGs, manic shooters, and strategy games.

It's fixed, because I don't think GameRankings does their own reviews of games. They just compile other sources' reviews and get their score from the mix of scores of their sources.

No, they don't, and I never claimed they did. I put it at the top BECAUSE it's a compilation of a bunch of other sites and magazines.
Again, not fixed.

It's scary because IGN of all places had a reviewer that understood what he was getting into when playing the game.

"Developer Sting has worked itself into a pretty nice little rhythm these days. The company does a lot of niche gaming, focusing on smaller projects like Rondo of Swords and Dokapon Kingdom for Atlus, and then churns out a full-on AAA effort every couple of years. "

Sting worked on Rondo of Swords?

I'm pretty sure they didn't, you cant expect IGN to be perfect.

No, they didn't. I feel like IGN has said that before, too.

That surprised me too. Than again, I'm satisfied they reviewed the game at all. Last I checked, Gamespot hadn't bothered and none of the game stores near my house ordered any copies.

The German magazine "M!Games" (formerly "MAN!AC") reviewed it in its import category and gave it a 87.
