Floppy Knights (v2.0.4b)

Phoebe’s homemade army runs on floppy disks, old-school hardware, and just enough magic to turn odd jobs into tactical battles. Floppy Knights blends turn-based strategy with deckbuilding, casting you as an inventive young woman trying to earn enough money to leave her parents’ house while her chatty robot arm Carlton offers support. The tone stays colorful and playful, but its missions demand thoughtful positioning and smart use of limited cards. Every contract sends your floppy-powered creatures into compact battlefields ranging from green forests to volcanic zones and frozen caves.

Combat unfolds on grid-based maps where movement, attacks, summons, and special abilities all come from the deck you bring into a mission. You select a squad of distinct Knights, build a card set around their strengths, then draw a fresh hand each turn to decide whether to advance, strike, defend, or set up a powerful combo. Units can create additional cards during a fight, meaning a plan can shift quickly when the right creature is on the field. Missions reward adaptation rather than brute force, as enemy layouts, terrain, and objectives encourage careful sequencing and efficient use of every action.

Its strongest idea is how naturally deck construction fits tactical combat: cards do not merely add random effects, but define how your army moves and functions. The hand-drawn artwork gives the retro-tech fantasy setting a warm, storybook look, while the varied unit types let players experiment with aggressive swarms, durable front lines, ranged pressure, and trickier combo-driven builds. Floppy Knights feels like a lighter, more approachable cousin to Into the Breach mixed with a tactical Slay the Spire, though its battlefield decisions remain satisfyingly demanding. It suits newcomers who want clear, colorful strategy and veterans who enjoy refining decks to uncover efficient, unexpected plays.
