Take on the role of a knight and join the prestigious tournaments at the king's court. Use your cards to win the jousting competitions, and to fight with your sword, axe or morning-star. Rally your squires, gain the support of a maiden, and play action cards against your opponents.

Clever use of action cards can change the type of tournament that is in progress. One card will 'unhorse' you, forcing everyone still in the jousting competition to switch to a weapon battle of the action card holder’s choice.

Other actions cause you to drop whatever other weapon you are using and resort to hand-to-hand battles in which the player with the most cards- not the highest point total- will win a token. Depending on the number of players in the game, the first player to win four or five different tournaments becomes the overall victor.

There is a lot more strategy involved in the game than first meets the eye.

Super jeu, règles relativement simple, très bonne re-jouabilité car la stratégie y a vraiment sa place.

Camelot est un jeu de cartes simple qui propose de s'affronter dans des épreuves distinctes (bourrage de pifs, découpe de viande à la hache, tranche fine de chevaliers à l'épée, renversement de chevaliers sur canasson). L'esprit burlesque de Camelot (par le biais des illustrations de François Bruel et les effets renversants des cartes Action) suscite un joli intérêt de la part des joueurs, surtout que la cogitation n'est pas absente (la gestion de sa main est primordiale afin d'améliorer ses chances de victoire). Vais leur montrer que je ne suis pas une camelote de chevalier !
