Taking its roots from novels based on the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, Chronicles of the Sword follows the story of Sir Gawain through his adventures in Camelot. The evil Morgana La Fay is threatening the peace and prosperity of the land, this time by revealing the affair between Lancelot and Guinevere. King Arthur and Merlin have assigned you the task of ridding the land of Morgana once and for all.

To do this, you must seek and discover items and venture out on quests for knights and other royal identities. Chronicles of the Sword has you journeying through Camelot using a point-and-click interface as you encounter enemies and solve a variety of puzzles. The characters are on screen at all times, and interaction with people and objects is accomplished by clicking on certain characters or items. Can you save the reputation of Lancelot and defeat the evil Morgana? The people of Camelot are counting on you.
