Knight vs Giant: The Broken Excalibur

Arriving where he is least expected, and above all without a white steed, our supercharged knight succeeds in proposing an interesting iteration of a relatively fashionable genre. The gamble of integrating the whole mythology of the Round Table is an excellent idea that brings a real breath of fresh air. Unfortunately, Knight vs Giant: The Broken Excalibur lacks the bespoke armour that would allow it to shine during a parade. A little awkward and rough around the edges in its deliberately restrained evolution, it is but a helmet too large for its ambitions as a resolutely indie title. Arthur nevertheless manages to give us a pleasant moment in the shimmering lands of this dark age of Camelot.
