  • story
    35 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is a carefully crafted, authentic retelling of Arthurian legends, blending faithfulness to source material with a unique, immersive narrative style enhanced by a majestic narrator and evocative music. Quests are elaborate and thoughtful, requiring puzzle-solving and strategic combat, offering a rich RPG experience that balances storytelling and gameplay. Overall, it is praised as a high-quality, artistic narrative journey perfect for fans of medieval tales and Arthurian lore.

    • “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.”
    • “The narrator does an incredible job with her voicework, narration, and singing, giving the game a bombastic flair befitting the fairy tale adventures which goes hand in hand with the game's lovely storybook aesthetic.”
    • “The quests are based on literature and are accurate in that way, not in a Hollywood movie way.”
    • “The story side of the game is sort of like King's Quest: you need to find specific items and speak to specific NPCs to make the story move forward.”
    • “You ride back and forth between characters 3-5 times to get their quest done, then you solve maybe one puzzle and fight a boss.”
    • “While there is an option to turn back time to the previous year, the game is about shaping your own story within the heroic tales of the Arthurian legend.”
  • gameplay
    31 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay features fresh, engaging mechanics centered around card-based systems and knight stats, offering strategic depth without being overly complex. While tutorials and documentation aid understanding, some find the combat clunky or repetitive, with mixed opinions on the card and hex-based combat. Overall, the game blends narrative, setting, and mechanics well, delivering a unique and immersive Arthurian RPG experience with meaningful choices and creative gameplay.

    • “The mechanics are fresh and engaging while not being overwhelmingly deep or difficult to learn.”
    • “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.”
    • “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.”
    • “Firstly, the vast majority of gameplay is the worst parts of MMO fetch quests rolled into one big game.”
    • “The card mechanic does little to nothing to add to the combat; the hex-based combat is some of the worst I have played and I have been playing them since the 80s.”
    • “The gameplay is clunky and the UI feels somewhat unintuitive and poorly designed, but the immersion is worth it.”
  • graphics
    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features a unique, handcrafted medieval art style with charming, storybook-inspired visuals and animations that greatly enhance its fairy tale atmosphere. While the graphics are widely praised for their originality and beauty, some basic options like adjustable UI scaling, graphical settings, and save flexibility are lacking. Overall, the art and presentation reflect the developers' passion and significantly contribute to the immersive experience.

    • “The art style is phenomenal, and the animations are beautifully executed.”
    • “Unique medieval atmosphere with original, handcrafted artwork.”
    • “The artwork, the music, it's an all-around work of art.”
    • “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 not being able to freely save or set your own backup saves is frustrating, and 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
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music is widely praised for its authentic medieval style, beautifully complementing the game's Arthurian theme and enhancing immersion through operatic narration and song. While some find the musical storytelling peculiar or not to their personal taste, most agree it enriches the atmosphere and contributes to the game's unique and passionate artistic presentation.

    • “The storytelling, the artwork, the music, it's an all-around work of art.”
    • “The art, the music, everything evokes the medieval tradition, making the game unique and bold.”
    • “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.”

    • “Good replayability.”
    • “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, which from what I can tell so far has much replay value based on how things can shake out.”
  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is notably poor, resulting in shaky performance, and is further hampered by infrequent autosaves and the lack of manual saving options. Improvements to both optimization and UI are needed to enhance the overall experience.

    • “Also, the game’s performance is shaky as hell, and the fact that autosaves are infrequent while manual saves don’t exist is also a questionable decision at best.”
    • “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.”
  • stability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is somewhat inconsistent, with users reporting occasional bugs that affect the overall experience.
