Introduction[edit | edit source]
The game begins by showing a letter written by the princess to the knights.
Dear Stupid Knights,
Thank you for falling into the first of my many traps!
If you wish to survive, you must survive my castle of ultimate DOOM!
Should you survive, I "Promise" to marry you!
Isn't this a much more fun way to find a suitor?
YOURS DEMENTEDLY
Princess Nectarine

Level 2[edit | edit source]
Knights given: 7
Knights needed for level completion: 4
Potential villagers to save: 0
This level has four trap platforms stretching across the screen which each trigger a slime trap. Each trap platform has an additional row of crumbling platforms above it that stretch across the screen. To avoid the most traps, only step on the first trap platform, single jump, and continue double jumping onto crumbling platforms so as not to set off more traps.

Princess Nectarine: Oh! Some of you knights survived!
Super! Great! Amazing!
Knight: Yes your Highness!
We have bested all of your traps, to win your hand in marriage!
We now wish to claim our prize!

A Knight myself!
Knight: What?!?
But my lady, what about your promise?
Princess Nectarine: Promises, smomises!
I'm a PRINCESS, I'LL DO what I want!

Previews[edit | edit source]
Knight Trap, the name previously unknown at the time, was previewed on March 18th 2011. Along with the post was an image of one of the levels.
On March 23rd, a video preview of the game was launched. The preview shows the titlescreen of Knight Trap, the intro, and some levels were shown in the video (below).

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- The slime traps are a reference to enzymes from the Test Subject Blue series. The blue slime is a reference to Blue while the green slime is a reference to Green. Coincidentally, Knight Trap was the first game to hint Test Subject Green.
- If the player leaves the titlescreen of Knight Trap untouched, the Knights will start to come in different numbers. Eventually, all the Knights will jump into the castle, then there will be for a few seconds no Knights on the screen.
- The character, and traps from Knight Trap appeared in the Nitrome 2.0 skin in a building.
- The title is almost certainly a reference to the 90's FMV game Night Trap.
- There is a glitch where some platforms can be inaccessible and the Knight will continuously walk in the air until he reaches a platform. This will be fixed if you reset the level or die.
- There is also a glitch where if the player reset the level the traps will remain where they were. After the player resets a second time, it will be fixed.
