You're probably a pretty nice person, kind, polite and peaceful. Have you ever secretly wanted to be the bad guy? Like town bully bad, like tax collector bad, like get medieval and bust some heads bad? Well today's game will help you work out those issues faster and cheaper than a trip to the therapist.

In this game you are The Black Knight and your job as the king's go-to henchman is to go out and collect taxes from the peasantry. Now you could go out and ask politely "Oh please Sir, could you pay your taxes if you would/" OR you could go and beat the gold out of the whole rotten lot with a big freakin' stick. Which do you think is going to get you on the king's good side? hint: B.F. Stick. So go forth and whack away the king's coffers are wanting.

The trick to being a good black knight is whack efficiently, wanton whacking will wear you out and it won't get you enough gold to please the king. And you don't want to displease the king if you value your head. The trick is a good accurate whack on the pate of any passer-by, that pops the gold right out of 'em. Some of the clever ones will try to hide in barrels and such to avoid your wrath, fat chance! If you collect your quota for the king you are rewarded and can upgrade your weaponry. And nothing makes the peasant give up the gold faster than the sight of your brand new Excaliber sword.

We like this game for the sheer misanthropic humor of the game. Who is going to save the peasants from the evil tyrant that is the king? Not you. Hahahaha!
