Tips And Tricks

Catching the sword is much faster than picking it up of the ground so try and throw the sword so it will hit enemies and land in an area that the Ai will be able to catch it. The brain upgrades for the Ai will help with this as it will react better to your throws

When upgrading it is important to balance your upgrades. A very fast but dumb knight will always be worse than a knight with a little bit of everything.

The most powerful enemy in the game is the Wizard, it fires fireballs which deal massive damage to your castle and they can teleport around the courtyard. Throwing your sword at them just as they release a fireball will allow you to damage the wizard itself and destroy the fireball at the same time!
