This includes the third and final single-player expansion for Shovel Knight, which is called King of Cards, which stars King Knight in a prequel story, as he🃏 battles the Three Kin🥀gs and joins the Order of No Quarter.
Shovel Knight: King of Cards also includes a card game that greatly resembles Triple Triad from the Final Fantasy series.
