    Fantastic. They do a great job of including the main parts of the legends of King Arthur and his Knights, but they deviate from it enough to improve on things. The best part is the little nods to The Holy Grail.
  2. Media and Games Online Network

    Tries hard to be successful, but technical faults and the one major gameplay problem may dampen the experience for some. On the other hand, the game features some nice hack-n-slash action.
  3. Electronic Gaming Monthly

    Without the strategy element to back it up, combat (by which I mean tapping the same button over and over) gets repetitive quickly. [August 2002, p.124]

    Need more options to save, Dying when you get close to the end of a mission sucks having to start over again. I gave the game away. Next time I read and rent before I buy!!… Expand
