Reception

Keith Gross reviewed King Arthur in The Space Gamer No. 29.[1] Gross commented that "The game can be fairly playable if the man-to-man combat matrix is replaced with a simple die roll. Overall, King Arthur is not a bad game, but it's not a great one either."[1]

gollark: You could *theoretically* have some complicated system where children do "responsibility tests" or something, but I don't think it would work very well.
gollark: More complicated metrics would be hard and probably prone to abuse.
gollark: No, I mean censorship.
gollark: The new trends in esolangs are somewhat troubling, but I don't know if they actually *are* new or I just completely failed to notice anything until now.
gollark: Yes, we have very significant overlap.
