Play In the Days of Knights and Kings Online

Oh man, In the Days of Knights and Kings—this game is pure MS-DOS nostalgia with a side of goofy medieval charm. You start off picking your knight (I always went for the one with the ridiculous helmet) and suddenly you're thrust into this world where one minute you're clashing swords in a duel, and the next you're trying to outsmart some puzzle that feels like it was designed by a slightly tipsy court jester.

The pixel art has that perfect early '90s vibe—bright, chunky, and full of personality. And the humor? It’s got that same weird, irreverent energy as those old adventure games where you could poke a chicken and get a sarcastic response. There’s no grand open world or deep lore here, just quick, satisfying little challenges that keep you grinning. Jousting feels janky in the best way, and the strategy bits are simple enough that you won’t get bogged down.

If you miss the days when games didn’t need tutorials or loot boxes to be fun, this one’s like digging up a treasure chest in your grandma’s attic. Just don’t blame me when you get the tavern music stuck in your head.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
