🎯 Objectives

The primary objective in Dungeon Knight is to guide your knight to the exit portal on each level to progress through the dungeon. Your short-term goals include avoiding spike traps, defeating slime blobs through math combat, and collecting keys to unlock doors. For long-term success, master the pattern recognition of trap layouts, efficiently solve arithmetic problems to preserve health, and strategically use power-ups. Ultimate victory comes from escaping the final dungeon level with the highest possible score.

💡 Pro Tips

🎪 Master the math-based combat system by practicing quick mental arithmetic; faster solutions deal more damage and conserve health.
⚡ Plan your route several moves ahead to avoid getting cornered by enemies or traps. Scout the entire level before making decisive moves.
💰 Prioritize collecting keys and power-ups early, as they are often essential for accessing the exit portal later in the level.
🏆 For high scores, focus on completing levels quickly for time bonuses while also defeating all enemies for extra points. Perfect runs with no damage taken yield significant score multipliers.
🛡️ Use your shield power-up strategically against unavoidable traps or when facing multiple enemies in sequence to preserve your health for later, more challenging levels.
🔑 If you have a choice between two paths, always opt for the route that offers more resources, as you will need them for the progressively difficult dungeon floors.
