Games based on the Arthurian legends

King Arthur, Merlin, the sword Excalibur, the knights of the round table and the kingdom of Camelot are known to almost everyone. The Arthurian legends are a collection of stories and myths associated with King Arthur, a legendary British king who is said to have lived in the late 5th and early 6th centuries. These legends have been passed down through generations and have become an integral part of Western literature and folklore.
The stories (and the video games based on them) typically involve a mix of history, mythology, and fantasy.
The Arthurian legends have been adapted and retold in numerous forms, including literature, art, music, film and, of course, videogames.
