Why It's On The List
  • Building off of the classic "choose your own adventure" board game (Tales of the Arabian Nights), Andrew Parks created a richer, cleaner, and more deeply thematic take on the system that feels true to the source material (Arthurian legends and myths).
Tips & Tricks:
    • When playing the full game, you'll want to choose a particular path of renown to focus on - both for scoring purposes and to better support your knight's development.
    • The game is at its best with folks who cold read well and are willing to push into the lite-RPG elements of the system. 
    Extras
    • I wrote an extensive review of the game for the Opinionated Gamers website last year.
    • This is the first of two designs by Andrew Parks on my top 100 list.
