Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon is ambitious new action adventure RPG based on the characters and mythology of King Arthur and Avalon.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "I may have sounded overly harsh, but in reality, I actually enjoyed my time playing Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon IN SPITE of its many issues and bugs. It’s a fun world to explore, it’s an interesting lore to unveil, and, as previously mentioned, the story is actually really good. I can’t help but deeply respect a smaller team for coming up with what’s essentially their own take on The Elder Scrolls. That being said, those Bethesda RPGs have a certain charm and mojo that’s impossible to replicate. It’s a fun RPG to tackle if you’re currently looking for something akin to Oblivion and Skyrim, and especially if you’re a fan of anything related to King Arthur."
With so many AAA big-budget games and countless indie games across genres, it’s increasingly rare to see a AA game with a modest budget and scope break through and make waves in the industry. It’s even less common for that game to confidently and consistently emulate a series with the caliber of The Elder Scrolls. With Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon, though, developer Questline has built a tight, satisfying “Scrolls-like” that effectively captures so much of what makes its influences so great in the context of the dark fantasy Arthurian world of Tainted Grail.
While it doesn’t always stray from its influences and is littered with technical issues big and small that frequently took the reviewer out of the experience, The Fall of Avalon brings its perilous world to life beautifully, with an impactful story and an expansive open world that show incredible potential for this world and genre.
Game Rant Writes "Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon delivers a bleak, immersive RPG experience, though its clunky combat and unbalanced gear system hold it back."
I really enjoyed the demo, but with the shadow drop of Oblivion, it may be overlooked because of it.
game is sick...buggy, ugly but has actual combat mechanics
Print a physical copy (with the game on disc not the lame MS/Ubisoft way) and I’ll check it out
