Dark Castle

Entering the Dark Castle.

The Dark Castle is an area in Rampage Knights. It can be accessed by reaching the end of the Courtyard, and must be completed to reach the Tomb. The levels are roughly linear, and players will constantly move towards the end of the level. However, there are various side rooms that players can explore.

Strategies

The Dark Castle is similar to the Courtyard, and players can progress in much the same way. There is a higher proportion of traps which players should be aware of. If players have not yet found a good weapon, or are still using the weapon they started with, they may wish to explore the various side rooms that appear in order to loot or buy one. Despite the risk of encountering more enemies and taking damage, this will make progressing far easier as the levels start to become more difficult.

Enemies

The Dark Castle contains the following enemies:
