The crew of the Skylark, a spaceship of the Spiral Order, fled the planet in search for "a source of incredible power" in hopes of being able to use it to save their planet, and in doing so, discover the planet of Cradle. According to the prologue, the war against the Morai brought them near extinction on their home planet of Isora. The Spiral Knights are a spacefaring army serving under the Spiral Order organisation. Real money can also buy certain costumes and promotional items. Energy can be exchanged for other commodities and currency, to accelerate a knight's development. Players can spend real-world money to purchase an in-game commodity called energy. Guilds are limited to 100 members by default, and friend lists are capped at 250. Instances (copies) of Haven typically have tens of knights present. Clockworks parties are limited to four knights and player-versus-player contests are limited to six-versus-six. Spiral Knights is massively multiplayer, although each player interacts with a small subset of other online players at any given time. The art work draws on many traditions and cultures beyond medieval European knights and outer space science fiction - for example, cowboys, wizards, ninjas, and chefs. The game's visual style has been called "adorable" and "cutesy". Weapons include swords, handguns, and bombs offering various play styles and characteristics. Character progress comes not through the improvement of personal statistics, but rather through upgrades to equipment. When they are not battling enemies or each other, knights train, shop, trade, and chat in Haven. In addition to this player-versus-enemy mode, there are two optional player-versus-player modes: one that is similar to Clockworks play, and a Bomberman-like mini-game that differs substantially from the rest of the game. There are four main bosses, each with an alternate "Shadow Lair" variant, and numerous mini-bosses. When exploring the Clockworks, knights cooperate to defeat crowds of enemies of various types, while dodging traps and solving simple puzzles. The player controls a single knight, and may play solo or with other players. In its gameplay, Spiral Knights is a top-down, third-person, real-time action-adventure game, comparable to The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures. They hope to exploit this energy source to resurrect and re-launch the Skylark.
Operating out of the town of Haven on the planet's surface, the knights descend into the Clockworks, with the goal of understanding the mysterious energy source at the planet's core. The interior of the planet is filled with a mechanized, continually reconfiguring dungeon called the Clockworks. Their ship, the Skylark, has crashed on the planet Cradle. The Spiral Knights are a spacefaring army from the planet Isora. The game won Best Online Game Design, and was nominated for three other awards, in the 2011 Game Developers Choice Online Awards. Spiral Knights reached one million accounts in its first three months and three million accounts in its first thirteen months.
They also battle each other in an optional player-versus-player mode. Knights cooperatively battle monsters throughout the Clockworks, the dungeon that fills the planet's interior. In the game, the player controls a knight of the Spiral order, which has crash-landed on the mysterious planet Cradle. The free-to-play, Java-based game was released in 2011 and is still updated occasionally. Spiral Knights is a massively multiplayer online game created by Three Rings Design and now owned by Grey Havens.
