Black Knight Sword is a Platform Game developed by Grasshopper Manufacture and Digital Reality, as a whimsically dark and strange throwback to 8-bit and 16-bit 2D action platformers for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.You take control of the eponymous Black Knight, Grahame Wormwood, in a fairy tale quest to stop an evil White Princess. Aiding him in this adventure is Black Hellebore, a spectre that takes form of knight's magical sword who can also help him perform double-jumps, cast spells, and solve puzzles. Black Knight Sword exudes a unique puppet theatre artstyle that looks like something straight out of Monty Python with dynamically changing backdrops and scenery.The game was released on December 11th, 2012 for PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade the day after. Has nothing to do with Black Knight staring Martin Lawrence. If you're looking for the trope of a knight in black armor, see Black Knight. | |

Stable Time Loop | |
| Black Knight Sword (Video Game) / int_37690091 | comment |
Stable Time Loop: Implied. God sealed away the two bickering twin sisters in a storybook the narrative is set in. It's implied that when the story ends in a sisters defeat, Wormwood goes back to hang himself and then which ever sister lost revives him into a knight when the story restarts to wrest control back from the other as a sword spirit, which is why the White Princess is able to make her own knight and also become a sword spirit. | |

Downer Ending | |
| Black Knight Sword (Video Game) / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: In the True Ending, the White Princess is defeated and Grahame is finally free from the Black Hellbore's binding, returning to his room... only to then hang himself again, likely staying dead this time. | |

Central Theme | |
| Black Knight Sword (Video Game) / int_5ce7dbb9 | comment |
Central Theme: Violence begetting violence. All the main bosses have seemingly unconnected short poems that all have the theme of people bringing animals harm (with various kinds intents, but all ultimatelyending the same.) The Three main bosses are also fusions of the animals and the humans who brought them harm (the wolf and the hunter that shot it, the spider and the princess who brought it to her father - that smashed it, and the chicken and the farmer who cooked it.) The main story is about a Sword Spirit fighting a Princess who turn out to be the spirits of twin sisters trapped in a storybook, and it's implied that they're no different from each other, to the point that the games events repeat with them exchanging the two roles and Wormwood is simply caught in the middle as their fighter and just wants to rest in peace, which is why he hangs himself and the Narrator repeats the opening line at the very end. | |

Nintendo Hard: With the game being a throwback to 8- and 16-bit action platformers, this comes naturally. Even freakin' Easy Mode has its fair share of challenges. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| Black Knight Sword (Video Game) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: Wormwood hangs himself at the beginning of the game, but is brought back by to life by Black Hellbore, falling from the noose and picking up the sword which kicks off the events of the game. The True Ending shows that he'd rather stay dead, however. | |

Damage-Sponge Boss: Most of the bosses take a lot of hits to bring down, but arguably the biggest example goes towards the boss of the Unexpected Shmup Level, who has the most forms out of any of them. | |

Harder Than Hard: The dreaded Arcade Mode strips you of the ability to save your game and adds a strict time limit to each level, while the difficulty is set on Hard. Which means you have to play through the whole game in one sitting. | |
