![]()
Solo Knight is a Adventure/Roleplaying/Entertainment game from Shimmer Games Co., Ltd., first launched in 27th August 2020.
It’s rated 12+ and currently has 438+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Solo Knight Stand Out
Solo Knight is a hardcore Diablo-like game. Come and create your Build from more than 200 pieces of equipment and 600 perks. Massive contents await you to explore.
- Introduction:
Solo Knight is a Diablo-like game designed for players who love to hack and slash. You are going to explore the hazardous underground world and fight against different monsters and strange creatures. You can use resources that you collect such as gold coins, equipment, and smelt stones to strengthen yourself. Try to create your own BD via a different combination of perks, runes, and affixes.
-Game Features:
· 200+ equipment—— every equipment comes with an exclusive skill
You can collect more than 200 pieces of equipment. Each of them comes with a unique skill. You can change your equipment at any time you want. Let’s try some different combinations and experience a wide variety of battles.
· 90+ runes—— DIY skills! It‘s all up to you!
Besides a lot of equipment skills, you can also use different runes to change and strengthen the effects of your skills. For instance, runes can be used to increase the number, size, and speed of projectiles. It also allows your weapon to penetrate more enemies, or split up more projectiles when you hit your target. What's more, you can even summon a totem to fight for you.
· 600+ perks——create a growth route of your own.
In this game, you will have two basic perks to represent offense and defense respectively. More than 600 perks provide you with countless options and possibilities. Try to plan your growth route with limited perk points, and find the best way out.
· Leave it offline—— you can strengthen yourself as well.
We designed offline gameplay for our players who are limited by time. In addition to online gameplay, you can also get offline benefits based on your equipment level. Even if you don't start this game for a long time, you will collect resources as well.
· Seasons—— massive contents await you to explore!
The new season will be released every 3 months. In the new season, you are going to experience a brand new system, gameplay, equipment, and perks. All these new elements allow you to create a unique BD. Up to now, we have released several seasons, and we still keep designing more for our players.
-Story:
It was a silent night with heavy snow. My uncle who was one of the prestigious members of Solo Knight unexpectedly came home from a mysterious place. He took out a shabby parchment which was said to be written by Max, the head of Solo Knight.
There was a blurry mark on that paper. My uncle told me that was the very place where his old friends were located.
Everything's going so adventurously. We finally arrived at the location. What we were facing was way beyond our imagination. Monsters and strange creatures were hiding in the darkness. We had to struggle to survive. Coincidentally, we discovered a vast and miraculous underground world.
My story as a knight starts from now on. Endless darkness and abyss await us to explore together.
This Adventure game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Perfect been playing this game for years totally f2p, devs ad new stuff each season to test new builds. Fun auto diablo with excellent talent systems and armor/weapons.
Nice game but u need find out which build u need.
Its a fun dungeon-crawler-like game with a few idle elements. We dont have much to say except its fun.
One thing we will say this game is epic. We have created numerous builds that did tons of damage. Please add the following weapons katanas and spears. It will help add variety and other builds into the game. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Deep, fun, great systems, music and graphics. And not a thousand ads to sit through. Well made, addictive loop all around. Enjoying it very much so far! Just wish there were more characters to choose from – a small complaint really. Try it people. :).
Good time waster. Im an old Diablo player and we love the random combos that you can come up with. Dev please dont get greedy and continue to listen to your players and you may have a winning game here.
It definitely is a cross between Diablo and idle. The artwork is pretty cool as well, but there needs to be a way to report or filter out offensive gear review.
Nonstop Knight but a lot better! Great game.
Good graphics and gameplay. We like how you can choose to idle or play.
Was fun for a bit, until the game opened up a bit and it directed us to link an account. You have no option but to link an account or you cannot continue the game. After trying to link an account through all available methods, and the game not progressing and just giving us a message that says logout accepted, restarting the game now nothing happens.
Now every time we play all our perks reset and reassigning 70 perks every time we wanna play is just too much not sure Im gonna play anymore before thatll update it was a great game we liked it.
Entertaining for an idle game. We like that you get some control of the game.
Constant freezing making the game unplayable, as of before, great game.
Was enjoying the game very much and reached around level 30 and the game froze. Not sure why it happened and we uninstalled it and reinstalled it too. But still it keeps on freezing. And on top of that we lost all our previous data. Sad that we could only give a 2 star. We really loved it so far.
Genuinely enjoys this game. Got to level 34 (played for about 2 days). For whatever reason, we got to login today and it just freezes after about 10 seconds. We uninstalled and reinstalled a few times to now avail. Fix the freezing issue and Ill change the rating.
The new update is causing the game to freeze. Unplayable. Please fix.
Newest update causes constant freezing. Deleted.
Yep this is a real review hopefully the title was a giveaway lol anyways this game is actually pretty sick. Its a offline hack and slash dungeon runner more or less. We hate mobile games with a passion but we think Ill keep this one. First off since installing it we have seen zero forced ads which is huge. Secondly its not throwing cash shop offers at us every 5 minutes at all. Its almost like the developer is an actual gamer and likes his own game. 10/10.
Game has easy mechanics and some challenging fights. Kiting is the key with ranged.
We really like the game its very cool and very fun and we like the cool monsters that you fight and how its not a super confusing or hard.
Just got this game about a week ago, and Im already enjoying it! Play it for as long as you want, and when youre done, you will have lots of loot when you come back to play it again. Use the loot to pick and choose your preferences on the various types of armor and weapons you like, then use the remaining loot to help in modifying and advancing the armor/weapons to level up your character. Not sure how many levels are in the game, but Im already at level 24, and still going strong! Give it a try! You might enjoy it too.
We love rpg style games that have builds and whatnot.
Game seems to have potential and is enjoyable, but Im stuck on the tutorial asking you to click for dungeon shards because the button is off screen.
Fun, epic idle game. Played now for some time. Hard to find a fun idle game that will challenge you at every step of the way. Keep up the awesome updates and look forward to the next season.
Sweet way to pass the time as a passenger on a long road trip.
So we were really enjoying what looked to be the play style the first couple levels, but the tutorial part was over and PC participation was made worthless due to the overpowered NPC they introduce and stick you with through at least the first 10. Uncle has a bow with range that fills the screen, damage output that kills things before you get close, and when he finally puts the bow down its for a pair of axes that also allow him to clear stages before you get a single attack off. Amazing way to pull players out of a game while trivializing anything the player might have down during that time.
Played a few hours, so far so good.
Pretty fun game. We like the art style and the gameplay is nice and simple. Its kept our interest so far.
Just started it and it has our attention.
Really enjoying this game so far! Love the mechanics.
Its been holding our attention for the last hour or so. Pretty decent game. If there is a pay wall for enjoyment then we will be back :).
Great graphics, tons of loot, customization however you want and tons of mobs… What else do you need? Play this one.
Very clunky controls. Very unbalanced combat. Possible to get stuck on a level you can't beat with sucky gear with no way of getting better gear to beat boss who has insane skills and damage you cant deal with.
Game is not bad but the inability to listen to our own music while this game is open is the deal breaker. Deleted.
This game is structured as a hybrid between auto and manual play, but for whatever reason the worst parts of both play styles have been utilized. The fighting is auto by default, which you cannot toggle off, but you can temporary override by tapping somewhere for your character to move. Then your character moves there and continues auto fighting. You also have some skills you can tap on. If you just leave everything on auto, your character dies pretty quickly, so manual input is required. The responses to manual movements, however, are delayed and slow, as if it wasn't designed to be used manually even though it's required to survive. And for that reason, we're out.
You guys have a really unique game going a truly amazing game. You guys NEED to ADD UNIQUE DROPS. Drops that no other player has to TRULY TAKE THIS GAME TO ANOTHER LEVEL. Also dont let other players take advantage of game progress with shop spending. Make the unique drops be only with UNIQUE BOSS RAIDS. Make some boss raids appear only once and at a random time when people play, every boss raid is also NOT THE SAME BOSS.
This is just another idle game, where you dont actually do anything and just watch your character move, attack, and complete levels on their own. The AI controls literally everything, aside from skill casting. We thought at some point Id be able to control our character, but tapping on the screen to make your character switch directions is pointless because once you stop tapping, the character just turns around and resumes auto-play. Its like watching a movie more than it is playing a game, you dont really get to do much at all to affect anything.
Fun gameplay Great Visuals Developers, please add Guilds & perhaps more difficulties for the existing stages(Hard, Nightmare etc) we already registered for the forum too(couldnt hurt to add a Discord for the game as well) Great Job, Loving the Game.
Whenever we hold it the beam goes the opposite where you target.
