Legends of the Round Table

A very unique game. I like how each quest references its literary sources. The combat could be sped up a little though. The user interface has a vintage look, while the actual interactions are modern and smooth, well done!

Wonderfully sincere and soulfully crafted game doubling as a good introduction to Arthurian and adjacent mythos. Doesn't shy away from the grim parts, while still allowing for happier endings than the original stories had, should you make the right choices. The Citizen Sleeper-like system using cards for every skillcheck adds tension to interactions, but you're given more than enough levers to influence the result beyond what the RNG gives you, so it never gets annoying. Special shoutout must be given to the narration - everything about it is phenomenal. Even the silliest parts like the dwarf in Tristan and Iseult are played straight, without a hint of ironic detachment, with every adventure having at least two cutscenes where you get to hear the narrator sing these absolutely beautiful ballads while the events play out. My personal favourite one was in The Green Knight's introduction. As for the negatives, the battles can be really slow and tedious depending on cards drawn, while seldom presenting any real challenge - so far, apart from those who died due to old age, I lost only one knight to a ridiculously unlucky oneshot and another in a way I'd go so far as consider all but literally scripted. The game does, unfortunately. also outstay its welcome for me, with all the best adventures like "The Bisclavret" and "The Loathly Lady" being early on, while "Tristan and Iseult" and "The Green Knight", while not bad, unlock later and contain some really annoying puzzles and combat encounters.

Really dig the management and vibes of this game. Just go with the flow, take the cards you've been given and enjoy the ride.

An absolute aural and visual feast! So much love has gone into it, from the music to the art, to the presentation of various Arthurian tales. Even the combat system takes the chivalric code of honour into account, which I wasn't expecting, but which adds so much to the experience of being immersed within the culture and tales of the period! I'm not overly familiar with the Arthurian mythos and this game proved to be a perfect gateway. I love how it introduces me to the tales and the various knights, one after the other. It has to be said that the gameplay is slow, but at the same time, very cosy, and it's a wonderful bit of escapism that I can dip into whenever I feel in the mood to start up another story. Couldn't recommend more. A unique and lovely gem of a game.

There is something special about this game. To some extent, I think the underlying systems are a bit overwrought and complicated, but that does not take away from the experience really. It just takes a little getting used to. The presentation, music, and narration is a delightful experience and the recreation of the illuminated medieval art style is near and dear to my heart. I enthusiastically recommend this game if you love chivalric tales.

It's hard to think of anything I can add which isn't stated up front on the store page, but perhaps it is enough to say that the promise of a truly arthurian world presented in videogame format is fulfilled here to the utmost. If the idea of playing a game that is completely faithful to arthuriana in every facet of its design is appealing to you, then you will love this game without a doubt.

I absolutely love this game. The story is fantastic. The fact that they include the sources is so cool to me. The animation is unique and charming. The narration is superb. The actual gameplay (i.e., the cards and the combat) is enjoyable. I initially beat the game on the hardest difficulty setting, and there were times that the game felt truly unforgiving. This is something that I enjoy. Going back through on the easiest difficulty does not make the game trivial, but does vastly reduce the chances that there will be no way you can complete a specific challenge. You still have to be smart with your cards and combat positioning, though, or you'll take losses. The game isn't overly long, but it gave plenty of value for its cost.
