About This Game


Knights of the Chalice is a 2D RPG with turn-based combat for Windows. The game uses the OGL 3.5, the set of rules at the root of Dungeons & Dragons 3.5, a role-playing game from Wizards of the Coast. Create a party of four adventurers, explore the Crimson Coast of Mindrel and fight valiantly against the evil Council of the Slaver Lords, domineering Giants, fiendish Demons and scheming Dragons.

  • Turn-based, party-based tactical combat similar to that found in the old Dark Sun Shattered Lands game made by SSI and in Troika's Temple of Elemental Evil.
  • User-friendly interface. Launch a charge, full-attack or coup-de-grace with a single click - the computer will automatically look for the best option available.
  • Well-developed artificial intelligence. Enemies act as a group and use special actions like Grapple or Charge and tactics like taking a five-foot step before casting Maximised Fireball.
  • Omnipresent help files and clear in-game feedback (a feature also found in Temple of Elemental Evil) on the results of each dice roll, saving throw, attack roll, modifiers, etc.
  • 175 magic spells, most of which were taken from, or inspired by, Wizard of the Coast's open game content. The list of spells is available from the developer's website at http://www.heroicfantasygames.com/ListofSpells.htm.
  • Craft your own weapons and apply enchantments like Wounding, Speed, Flaming Burst and Keen. You can see the list of weapon and armour enchantments at http://www.heroicfantasygames.com/ListofEnchantments.htm.
  • Dozens of feats such as Cleave and Whirlwind Attack. See the list of feats at http://www.heroicfantasygames.com/ListofFeats.htm.
  • Multiple-choice dialogue allowing you to resolve situations in unexpected ways.
  • A large campaign largely inspired by the classic Dungeons & Dragons modules Scourge of the Slave Lords and Against the Giants.
  • Enjoy collecting 117 Galaxy achievements designed to challenge the best tacticians.

Free Demo / Tutorial



Knights of the Chalice Free Demo / Tutorial: this is a unique adventure.


A haunted forest. Strange ruins. The villagers call this place “ Devil’s Lair ”. The ruins may be dead, so they say, but the sinister, malevolent creatures that lurk underneath most certainly are not.

Tightening your packs, you reflect upon this. The devil’s lair, Hah! How could any self-respecting adventurer shy away from the golden opportunity? In this short adventure, the player characters are pre-created and start at level 3.

Great Old School cRPG

I played this game a while back when the creator was selling it directly. I'm happy to finally see it on GOG. The game is faithful to D&D 3rd Edition and the turn-based combat has a similar feel to Dark Sun or D&D Warriors of the Eternal Sun. The game is very challenging and some of the random encounters are down-right not fair. I love this game and I hope the creator continues to make more games.

Interesting concept poor implementation

The interface and implementation of the d&D 3.5 ruleset are awkward. The controls are unintuitive and the game has a fairly punishing learning curve. There's no multiclassing, which makes character development very linear. It feels like a demo for a more fleshed out game. I don't mind flawed first products from small devs. I'd consider getting the second game to see if there was improvement, but the community can be very toxic and gatekeeper-y. I think a better game in a similar niche is Solasta. Small crew that turned out a flawed, but interesting game. I am looking forward to Solasta 2, but I'm moving on from this franchise.

Hard but fun

This game is fun but the difficulty is high you will be running to the bombfires after every fight for a while. I honestly think if you like DnD 3.5 you will love this game just be prepared to die a lot so save often.
