Description

Camelot has fallen! King Arthur is dead, Merlin is missing and the castle has been looted. You and your friends are the last remaining knights of the round table and you have decided to duel for the few remaining bags of gold. But as all knights know money is not everything, whoever walks away with the best story is the true winner.

A light and fast card game that usually brings smiles and laughter around the table. The game takes about 5 minutes to learn and soon everybody is attacking everybody, trying to score as many points as possible. Using simple card combinations for attacks and a few special cards with multiple uses the players often have many ways to play their hands, but there is also a lot of luck involved and anyone can win.
