  • Beautiful and unique illuminated manuscript art style that deeply immerses players in medieval and Arthurian culture.
  • Engaging storytelling and faithful adaptation of Arthurian legends with rich narrative depth and musical narration.
  • Innovative and strategic turn-based card combat system that emphasizes honor and planning, providing satisfying challenge for fans of tactical RPGs.
  • Gameplay pacing can be slow due to frequent horse riding and back-and-forth fetch quests, which some players find tedious.
  • The UI and quality of life features are clunky and unintuitive, making it difficult for new players to manage complex systems easily.
  • The combat system's reliance on RNG and snowballing failure can be punishing and frustrating, with slow animations and limited customization reducing replayability.

  • story

    The game's story offers a faithful and immersive retelling of Arthurian legends, delivered with clever, atmospheric storytelling, high-quality quests, and a captivating narrator that enhances its fairy tale aesthetic. While quest design can involve repetitive fetch tasks and occasional logical inconsistencies, the narrative's depth, authenticity, and integration with turn-based combat create a rewarding experience for fans of medieval tales and thoughtful RPGs. Overall, it is praised for its artistic care, engaging voicework, and a strong blend of story, strategy, and exploration.

    • “The atmosphere, the storytelling, the careful citation of Arthurian source material, everything indicates that this game was made with love and care, something that's missing in many contemporary products.”
    • “A fantastic representation of Arthurian legends, a must play for anyone interested in storytelling!”
    • “The narrator does an incredible job at her voicework, narration and singing to give the game a bombastic flair befitting the fairy tale adventures which goes hand in hand with the game's lovely storybook aesthetic.”
    • “I also recently learned just how few quests are in the game.”
    • “Each story has about 3 areas and 4-5 NPCs and believe me you will get bored of riding between them.”
    • “Each character has the same dialogue, can choose all the same dialogue options, and has the exact same options in battle, and each quest has an obvious 'golden path' to get the best rewards.”

  • gameplay

    30% positive mentions, 60% neutral mentions, 10% negative mentions

    The gameplay combines strategic, card-based and turn-based combat mechanics with RPG elements that emphasize chivalry and narrative immersion, offering a unique and engaging experience for fans of Arthurian themes. While praised for its depth, meaningful choices, and creative mechanics, it can feel slow-paced, complex, and sometimes repetitive, requiring some time to learn due to a clunky UI and limited tutorials. Overall, it provides a cozy and thoughtful gameplay loop that appeals more to players who enjoy tactical storytelling over fast-paced action.

    • “Graphics are absolutely stunning, music and narration are beautiful, and the gameplay is engaging, deep and interesting.”
    • “Deep and strategic RPG gameplay, meaningful choices that impact the course of a campaign, fun puzzles, and a surprisingly interesting management of the round table.”
    • “The card mechanic in tandem with the spellbook and challenge categories for using weak cards or giving yourself future tools means while RNG is still present, the game gives quite a bit of control and skill expression in trying to mitigate or control what you have available.”
    • “But the gameplay itself is just lacking depth and replayability.”
    • “The game actively discourages ganging up on enemies (chivalry, remember?) which would be a neat mechanic if it didn't make the battles even more excruciatingly slow.”
    • “The gameplay is clunky and the UI feels somewhat unintuitive and poorly designed but the immersion is worth it.”

    The graphics of the game are widely praised for their stunning, handcrafted medieval manuscript art style that beautifully captures Arthurian legend with charming animations and a unique storybook aesthetic. While visually exquisite and complemented by strong narration and music, some users note limited customization options and a static UI, which slightly constrain the overall experience. Overall, the art serves as the game's standout feature, deeply enriching its atmosphere and appeal.

    • “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.”
    • “The game beautifully evokes the mythic world of Arthurian legend, a world of bright livery and courtly love, brought to life through poetry and singing and graphics inspired by illuminated manuscripts.”
    • “The art style is phenomenal, and the animations are beautifully executed.”
    • “Combat animation speed can't be modified, UI is a static scale that can't be changed, there are no graphics options besides changing resolution, you can't pause cutscenes (at least not to my knowledge).”
    • “Finally, I want to point out that some basic graphical and accessibility options should be made available in-game.”
    • “I will note that players used to a more cinematic, action-centric depiction of combat may be put off by the unique art style and more abstracted combat.”

  • music

    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    46% positive mentions, 42% neutral mentions, 12% negative mentions

    The music in the game is widely praised for its authentic, medieval-inspired style that complements the illuminated manuscript art and Arthurian storytelling, creating a deeply immersive and atmospheric experience. While some find the operatic narration peculiar at first, many appreciate how the music and singing enhance the game's rich cultural and historical ambiance. Overall, the soundtrack and narration are seen as masterfully crafted elements that significantly contribute to the game's unique charm and emotional depth.

    • “The care that has gone into producing Legends of the Round Table is everywhere as you play - the art based directly on the style of illuminated manuscripts of the medieval period, the stories drawn from all manner of Arthurian texts (not just Malory's Morte d'Arthur), the period-style music and the style of songs and singing in different cutscenes.”
    • “It's so immersive, the menus are so detailed, stories are told so playfully, art is mind blowing, animations are pretty, combat is satisfying, systems are deep, music is lovely, systems' tutorials are so well made, sound (both narration and sfx) are masterfully done, and everything is crafted with so much love... ten out of ten I wish this game would get more recognition.”
    • “Beautiful manuscript-style art, great music, wonderful narration, and a genuinely strong feel for the French Arthurian tradition.”
    • “The script and songs might sometimes sound stilted or peculiar to modern ears and sensibilities, but when you get used to it, it becomes part of the game's rich immersive quality and helps transport you into the world of Arthurian legend.”
    • “Personal taste more than anything, but I'm not a giant fan of the musical operatic narrating sections here and there.”
    • “Nonetheless, narration and music are separate settings so it's trivial to modify each and turn one down if you're not vibing with it.”

    • “Replayable; it never ends.”
    • “You will get an incredible amount of content out of this game, and that's assuming you don't replay it. From what I can tell so far, it has much replay value based on how things can shake out.”

    • “☐ replayable / it never ends”

    The game's optimization is subpar, leading to shaky performance and a less smooth experience. Additionally, limited autosave frequency and the absence of manual saves further impact usability.

    • “It's certainly not a perfect game: the UI could and should be improved, and the optimization could also be better, but the experience is worth it.”
    • “The game’s performance is shaky as hell, and the fact that autosaves are infrequent while manual saves don’t exist is a questionable decision.”
    • “The optimization could be better, and the UI could and should be improved, though the overall experience is worth it.”
