Vivid Knight is a party-building roguelike strategy game. Players explore dungeons to collect 'Jewels'—units that possess unique symbols and colors. By collecting multiple jewels with the same symbols, players activate and stack powerful abilities. The game features ten different symbol colors and thirteen designs, challenging players to build the most efficient synergies to conquer lower floors and defeat lurking bosses.
Dinsun Expert Review
Our Expert Score
Vivid Knight is a brilliant marriage of roguelike dungeon crawling and 'auto-chess' style unit management. The jewel system is incredibly deep; you aren't just picking strong units, but trying to match symbol colors to activate powerful synergy bonuses. Getting six units with matching symbols can turn a struggling party into an unstoppable force.
The random nature of the dungeon floors and the jewel assignments keeps every run feeling fresh. It’s a game about making the best of what you’re given rather than following a fixed meta. The art style is vibrant and high-quality, and the tactical decisions—like when to spend your limited resources to upgrade a unit versus when to save for a potential synergy—are consistently engaging. It’s a perfect mobile strategy game for those who like short sessions with deep mechanics.
Features
Randomly generated dungeons
Deep symbol synergy system
10 color types and 13 designs
Unit upgrade mechanics
Tips & Walkthrough
Don't just pick the highest rarity jewels. A team of lower-tier jewels that all share the same color symbol will often outperform a disorganized team of rare units.
Gameplays
Collecting three of the same jewel will upgrade it to a more powerful version. This is the key to surviving the later, more difficult floors.

Q&A
Yes, it is a strategy game where you make decisions about party composition and movement while the dungeon progression is turn-based.
Ratings & Reviews
Simple, charming, addicting
Tue Apr 05 2022 Lost in Mexico somewhereVivid Knight is an auto-battler, roguelike, dungeon crawler where you collect and combine units to build your party and battle monsters. If you combine 3 of the same unit, you upgrade that unit and get a permanent bonus. The basic tactic is to upgrade as many units as possible to get the accumulate bonuses. The real strategy though is managing your money (carets). Splurge too early, and you will miss out on investment opportunities and more powerful units on later levels. Don’t buy enough, and you’ll die before you reach the later levels. The graphics and sounds are all cute, and there are no IAP. Could use some more content though. Looking forward to a DLC
Excellent excellent game
Sat Jul 02 2022 Jkluk23I have never played a game like this before. It seems to have everything opposite of a free to play, and that is amazing. The whole game is amazing, but very hard to put down. If you’re at all on the fence, just buy it. I don’t believe you will be disappointed.
well done
Wed Mar 16 2022 waldronluoGood game. Well done. The only star I took away was due to the end game content - the difficulty is too high if you want to get everything unlocked. I would recommend for light users, end game should allow them to play in a lighter mode, for example, you can go around the map without any restriction when you want to farm gems in the end game
Fun game.
Sat Feb 26 2022 skullcruncher44Fun game so far really enjoy it will definitely get a lot of hours out of it. One thing though can you please update the app icon with a higher resolution image. The app icon is pretty low resolution so it makes it looks like an old game when it’s in your Home Screen.
Amazing Game
Tue Mar 05 2024 Justin MaCan’t say enough good things here..it’s an autobattler revolving around tactical team building but still plays like a TBS since you cast a spell every turn in addition to the team you built attacking. Lots of randomness with nodes and just awesome all around. Onlyyyyy drawback is landscape
Can you make the game data sync across devices
Fri Aug 05 2022 Victor97HaoI have an iPhone and an iPad, but my game progress only store on one device. Hoping to see some iCloud sync function to make the game data sync across my devices
Comments were right.
Fri May 03 2024 Is life musicThis game is a ton of fun. Definitely worth the buy
Impossible to beat waste of money
Thu Feb 24 2022 Pug dogsIf you enjoy playing a game where luck not skill is a deciding factor and after an hour long dungeon run you have nothing to show this hot garbage is for you. Starts fun but the the witches maze final boss is impossible without the best of luck. I will never buy a game by this company again. Look at the guides and you will see it all boils down to stupid luck on one fight that takes an hour plus to get to. Trust me don’t waste your money on this. 凄い糞ゲー
