In terms of role-playing, your hero units can level up – just like in Warcraft III. They are all members of the Round Table Knights, and can be assigned to control a military group. However, because of the addition of ‘Role-Playing’ to the game name, Neocore decided to further strengthen this element by making all units in the game able to level up. You will have a point to increase the stats of each unit type when leveling up (melee, defensive, magic, cost, etc.)

In addition to those system elements, a very nice feature was created and included in the gameplay that was already quite complicated by King Arthur: the virtue of the player. The way in which you conduct your battle will be shown on an index bar. Your decisions will directly affect this increase or decrease.

You can choose to worship the gods of Old Majickal Relijun, or the new religion of God, you can choose to help the good-natured neighbors, or conspiracy-dedicated warlords. Your actions may not make you lose any advantage, but the farther you go in one direction, the more upgrades and new units you will receive. This means you will have to choose your path right from the beginning of the game.

King Arthur is not a gentle game, you will need at least 2GB of RAM along with a pretty average video card to be able to play smoothly. However, your investment will be returned with polished graphics and very rewarding details of the game. In the early versions, the system also encountered a lot of camera errors, and some units were completely unbalanced as the developer wanted. Therefore, installing patch 1.02 is a must if you want to enjoy the game without being bothered. After this version, everything runs quite stable and comfortable.

Although not a popular and widely popular game, King Arthur: Wargame’s Role-Playing is a “bargain” entertainment for strategy game lovers. The game has many deep designs, high replayability and a fitting story, so you can spend about 50 hours playing. This is probably the best average PC game of this genre that you can find in the current situation.
