King's Table: Legend of Ragnarok Strategy Board - Western
Rating: 7.4 (47 votes)
King's Table is an excellent computerized version an ancient Scandinavian board game of the same name. The arrangement of the pieces and differing objectives of the two sides set King's Table apart from Chess or Checkers. White player's objective is to move its king to the haven of one of the corners of the board, while black's goal is to prevent that from happening. This computer version also features the "Ragnarok" tournament mode, where the player takes the role of Norse God Odin, who has special pieces with unique powers. While the AI is none too bright, the unique gameplay and solid execution makes this a great underdog. If you love esoteric board games, it doesn't get much more esoteric than this. Thumbs up!Reviewed by: Underdogs
