Knights and Bikes Release Date Revealed

Knights and Bikes, the action-adventure video game set on a 1980s British island and starring two girls and their bikes, is finally, officially set to release.

“KNIGHTS AND BIKES is a hand-painted action-adventure for 1 or 2 players, set on a British island in the 1980s.

“It’s a coming-of-age story starring Nessa & Demelza, exploring the coasts of Penfurzy on their trusty bikes, looking for a legendary lost treasure in a Goonies-inspired tale of excitement, danger, fun and friendship.”
