Protect Me Knight[1] is a 2010 tower defense video game by Ancient for the Xbox 360. Released on the Xbox Live Indie Games service, the game features music composed by Ancient co-founder Yuzo Koshiro.[2]
Players assume the roles of four character classes (Fighter, Ninja, Amazon and Mage) tasked with the duty of protecting a princess from legions of oncoming monster hordes. Protect Me Knight features 8-bit visuals and audio and contains different digital box art styles for the Japanese and English versions of the game, as a humorous spoof to the regional box art differences of video games from the 8-bit and 16-bit eras.[3]
A sequel, Gotta Protectors, was released for the Nintendo 3DS in Japan in September 2014 and globally in July 2016.[4] A third game, Gotta Protectors: Cart of Darkness, was released for the Nintendo Switch in Japan in October 2019 and in English by 8-4 in April 2022.[5]
