Overview
Description

King Arthur's Gold lets you craft castles, wield swords as a Knight, or snipe from afar as an Archer in a fully destructible 2D world. The game blends cooperative puzzles, chaotic combat, and sandbox creativity for endless replayability. Play solo, team up with friends, or go head‑to‑head in fast‑paced matches across Linux, PC, and Mac platforms.

In King Arthur: The Saxons you command the devout Saxon warriors under King Raedwald, defending Britannia from the resurgence of wizardry and pagan monsters. Recruit armies, forge knights, and shape the fate of the realm in a sandbox experience that expands the King Arthur universe. This expansion blends real‑time strategy with historical fantasy, offering both single‑player campaigns and multiplayer battles. Lead your forces across Norfolk, manage resources, and prove that Raedwald is the true Once and Future King.
