About the game

Revolt of Don's Knights holds a distinction no other game can claim: it is the only Slovak dungeon crawler released for DOS in the entire decade of the 1990s. Published in 1996 by Emerald Software, it arrived when grid-based RPGs were already fading in the West, yet the genre still ruled plenty of Central European home computers. The premise is refreshingly direct: a knight must infiltrate the castle of a rebellious baron, and he has exactly twelve days to get the job done.

Anyone raised on Dungeon Master or Eye of the Beholder will feel at home right away — first-person view, movement across a square grid, and combat that plays out in real time. The hand-drawn interiors of the medieval castle give the game a homemade charm that its modest production values never manage to hide, and never really need to.

In Slovakia the game is still remembered fondly as the rough-but-endearing home-grown answer to the big Western classics. A note for archivists: the copy circulating under the label of a demo is in fact the complete game — a scene release by the group Celebre from January 1997, originally spread across eleven floppy disks, with data files in both Slovak and English.
