About the game
The tales of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table have inspired artists, scholars, and dreamers for over a thousand years. Now you can relive the legends of Camelot by sending powerful knights to mysterious lands in order to accomplish the world's greatest adventures! Camelot Legends is a fast-paced, non-collectible card game for 2-4 players, featuring 100 different cards with illustrations from leading artists such as Ed Beard Jr., Quinton Hoover, Carisa Swenson, Melissa Benson, and Donato Giancola. Camelot Legends divides the Arthurian world into three main locations: the chivalric kingdom of Camelot, the treacherous domain of Cornwall, and the enchanted realm of the Perilous Forest. Throughout the game, players create factions of characters who attempt to complete quests and overcome their enemies. Rival knights endeavor to surmount the difficult challenges that arise at each location. When the final event is complete, the knights who have accomplished the most challenging tasks capture the mantle of victory!

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Camelot Legends is 60 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Camelot Legends for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Camelot Legends has a complexity rating of 2.3 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
