About The Standing Stones

The Standing Stones is a dungeon crawler set in Arthurian legend, where players embark on a quest to recover The Holy Grail and Excalibur from Kormath's underground lair. As a knight aided occasionally by Lancelot, players navigate through a 3D maze-like dungeon with grid-based movement. Character creation involves randomized stats across five traits - Virility, Intellect, Holiness, Agility, and Initial Hits. The gameplay combines exploration, treasure hunting, and random combat encounters with Kormath's minions, which can be handled through combat, bribery, or greetings.
