Today, Knights of San Francisco was added to Google's Play Pass selection. This means that Play Pass subscribers can now play the game for free.
The game is part of three different "Best Games of 2021" selections — by Android Authority, by TouchArcade, and by Google Play. On Google Play, it made it to the "Game Changers" category thanks to its unique combination of gameplay and style. It was perhaps the only solo-developer indie game that made it to these lists.
Knights of San Francisco is a text-only simulation game about exploring goblin-infested San Francisco as a necromancer.
It has become a favorite in a niche community of players. A few select player reviews:

- "Absolutely amazing. Played from start to finish - enjoyable throughout, and with plenty to keep you thinking!" — Alex Brewer
- "Gorgeous bit of World building and wonderfully innovative gameplay." — Archemedian X
- "Good casual RPG similar to playing D&D with a good dungeon master." — DeadlyInsite
