    Shadows Over Camelot

    This week, the panel defends the realm in a rousing game of Shadows Over Camelot! Designed by Bruno Cathala and Serge Laget, Shadows Over Camelot was published in 2005 by Days of Wonder. In 2006, it was nominated for several Golden Geek awards and won a Spiel des Jahres "Fantasy Game" Award. Shadows Over Camelot is a cooperative board game in which players take on the roles of the Knights of the Round Table, working together to defend Camelot from various threats. Players face challenges such as quests, betrayal, and the looming threat of the Dark Knight; all while trying to maintain their honor and the kingdom's strength. The game featured a novel (at the time) traitor mechanic, where one player may secretly work against the others, adding tension and intrigue to the cooperative experience. / / / / / You can Listen to Us: Spotify || Apple Podcasts || Google Podcasts || YouTube You can Support Us: Patreon || Ko-fi || Merch: Redbubble || Leave a Rating & a Review wherever you listen.
