Crash Site

Theme(s) Level(s) Waking in a New World

The Crash Site is technically a Clockwork Tunnel, although it is not in a gate of any kind. After creating your knight, they land in the crash site. This level teaches you the basics of gameplay, teaching the controls used in combat and exploration.

This level is not multiplayer and knights will not be put in parties of more than 1. Upon dying in this level, the knight will be revived after a few seconds. If this is the first time Spiral Knights has been run on the computer, the rest of the game will download after the completion of this level.

Intro and Tips

Intro

Rhendon greets the new knights with the following message:

You just hit the surface of Cradle. My escape pod crashed just north of your position. We should meet up and find the nearest rally point.

Be careful and ready your sword, there are hostile creatures everywhere!

The knight meets Rhendon, who tells them this:

I've established a comlink with Knights that have formed a Rescue Camp up ahead. If you head north, you should eventually reach it.

I'm going to stay here for now and locate any other Knights that have crashed in the area. I'll meet you at the Rescue Camp before sunset.
