The game

Sprout Knight is a one-thumb horde-survival game for phones. Drag to move, double-tap to dash, and your hero attacks on their own. Survive a chapter's horde, level up into weapon evolutions, then beat a boss that fights back with telegraphed skills. Between runs, spend gold on permanent upgrades and unlock new heroes. Runs last 2 to 5 minutes.

Version 1.1, "Rise of Legends", adds hero ultimates, pets, charms, the legendary hero Grimroot, the Endless Abyss, daily Guardian's Trials, Sprout Camp and the Halloween event Haunted Hollow.

Key features

  • One thumb, portrait: made to be played on a phone in one hand.
  • 10 chapters: each with its own place, monsters and boss, from the Demon Pit to the Throne of Kings, where three kings fight you in turn.
  • Bosses that fight back: every skill is telegraphed, so a sharp dodge always works.
  • 6 heroes, 27 looks: the Knight, the Ranger, the Wizard, the Dwarf, the Lizard King and Grimroot the legendary Hollow Warden, each with their own signature weapon and voice.
  • Hero ultimates: fill the bar with kills, then tap to unleash your hero's ultimate.
  • Pets and charms: Ember the baby dragon, the Frost Owl, Spark and Shroom fight at your side; charms add run-changing powers.
  • Weapon evolutions: a level 5 weapon and its matching power become something much stronger.
  • The Endless Abyss and daily Trials: survive as long as you can, and take on a new challenge every day with the same fair power for every player.
  • Sprout Camp: the heroes' home, with a gold mine that fills while you're away.
  • Haunted Hollow: the Halloween event (October 24 to November 10), free to play.
  • Fair to free players: free to play with ads; watching an ad is always the player's choice where it gives a reward. Optional in-app purchases sell only fixed, named items: no loot boxes, and everything can also be earned by playing.
