Sword in hand, leap the gaps and clear each stage
Redhead Knight is a bright side-scrolling platformer about a young knight with a mop of red hair, a sword and a shield. Each stage is a run of grassy ledges, gaps and patrolling monsters between you and the finish. The art is friendly, but the jumps demand clean timing, and an enemy walking its usual route will happily bump a careless hero off a ledge.
How to play Redhead Knight
- Choose a stage from the level select screen.
- Run and jump across the platforms, timing each leap over the gaps.
- Cut down monsters with your sword or hop past them.
- Reach the end of the stage to clear it, then move on to the next.

Tips to play better
- Watch an enemy walk its route once before you commit; most turn around at the same spot every time.
- Tap jump for short hops. Holding it over a narrow gap can carry you right past the landing.
- Attack from a step away rather than at the very edge of a ledge, so a bump cannot knock you off.
- When a monster waits beside a gap, deal with it from solid ground before you jump; fighting in mid-air rarely ends well.

Redhead Knight FAQ
Is fighting every monster required?
No. Reaching the end of the stage is what counts, and jumping over a monster is sometimes quicker and safer than fighting it.
Can I replay stages I have already cleared?
Yes. The level select lets you go back to earlier stages to practice or simply play them again.
