Knightfall Arena is a free-to-play online survival RPG built with Phaser by Jow Games, a team of three Australian developers. It combines base building, monster wave defense, and player-versus-player combat in a single browser game, currently in active development and playable in the browser.
What You Do in Knightfall Arena
The loop starts with resource gathering: scavenge the world for materials to build and upgrade your base. Then comes the defense: monster hordes attack in waves and your fortifications are what stand between you and defeat. Once you've held your ground, the conflict shifts outward. Other players are competing for the same scarce resources, events and bosses, which means PvP encounters are a natural part of the progression.
