About this game

Camelot - The Court is a game of beastly back-stabbing and subtle scheming set in the court of King Arthur.

Tile based knights in the court of Camelot, are manoeuvred by players using action cards to move and manipulate your Knights, Opponents and the court. Camelot - The Court having only three rules, a playing time of 30-90 minutes with bright, humorous graphics — is the second title in "The Camelot Chronicles", a series of easy-to-play games with a target of three rules, maximum playing time of approximately one hour, and universal playability and appeal.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
