About This Game

Hook Knight is a vertical action roguelite set in a medieval zombie apocalypse, brought to life in 2.5D pixel art. Play as Boric, a knight scavenging essential supplies for surviving communities. When a supply run awakens an undead horde, your only escape is up.

Step through magical portals to visit an unlikely ally: a zombie wizard whose appetite for food outlasted his interest in brains. Trade your hard-earned provisions for perks and upgrades, and find new ways to survive the ascent.

Grapple, swing, and launch yourself through an infested tower. Use momentum to gain height, dodge enemies, and stay ahead of the dead. Every successful swing puts more distance between you and the horde. Every fall gives them a chance to catch up.

The people outside are counting on what you carry. Take detours into hidden storerooms to gather food, materials, and supplies but weigh every reward against the danger of losing your lead. A mistake can cost you precious height without ending your run. Recover quickly, find your next foothold, and keep climbing.

Explore the remains of a tower where experiments with eternal life unleashed an undead catastrophe. Ascend through abandoned laboratories, twisted magical spaces, and broken containment chambers in a dark world with a playful streak.

• Fast, focused runs designed to last 4-7 minutes.
• Grappling-hook traversal built around momentum and mastery.
• Risk-and-reward decisions as you balance gathering supplies with escaping the horde.
• Perks and upgrades to shape each attempt.
• A distinctive blend of pixel art and 3D environments.

Keep your supplies close. Keep your hook ready. Keep climbing.
