Acts of Chivalry

Acts of Chivalry is a type of minigame that appears in Sonic and the Black Knight. When performing an act of chivalry, the player trades a number of Rings for an collectable item with the townspeople, given the player completes a quick time interaction.

Description
Acts of Chivalry can performed during specific Missions in Sonic and the Black Knight. During these Missions, the player can interact with certain townspeople to initiate an Act of Chivalry. An on-screen prompt, which is a yellow rectangular box containing a speech bubble, will appear over such townspeople. Additionally, if it is possible for the player to perform an Act of Chivalry with that member of the townspeople at the time, the prompt will look normal. If it is not possible, a red "X" will appear over the prompt.

In order to perform an Act of Chivalry with one of the townspeople, the player must have at least 20 Rings and then press the Z Button near the member of the townspeople. This will trigger an quick time interaction where the player must press a series of the corresponding buttons shown on the screen before the time (which is displayed by a green bar) runs out. If the interaction is successful, the player will lose 20 Rings which are traded with an item that the player automatically obtains. If the interaction is not successful, the player will not lose Rings, but will not obtain an item either. Also, attacking the member of the townspeople that can be interacted with for An Act of Chivalry will prevent the player from interacting with that member for the duration of the Mission.
