Critic Reviews for Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon
Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon has some grand ideas, and it nails a lot of what it tries, but uneven difficulty, a few poor design choices, and a Holy Grail’s worth of bugs prevent it from finding greatness.
Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon delivers a bleak, immersive RPG experience, though its clunky combat and unbalanced gear system hold it back.
Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon puts an interesting spin on Arthurian legend and presents a competent world that plays like a love letter to the open-world first-person RPG genre.
The long awaited arrival of King Arthur in Tainted Grail is finally upon us, but does it live up to expectations?
It's a project where passion is on full display and I can't wait to see what Questline does next.
There are things I respect about Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon. Its soundtrack, for one, is uniformly pretty good, and the game’s ambition is undeniable, but I can’t really say I enjoyed much of my time playing it, moment to moment. Occasional striking vistas and questlines can’t make up for a world that feels pretty inauthentic in its representation of a fictionalized version of Celtic culture, and the way you are forced to constantly wander it to complete straightforward missions makes it a space that is hard to enjoy exploring. And while there are interesting roleplaying narrative beats, that is rarely reflected in gameplay that railroads you into one of two playstyles.
Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon achieves its ambitious goal: to follow in the footsteps of Skyrim and Oblivion, with a game that looks squarely at the classics. Tremendously fun and varied, it offers complete freedom to experience all kinds of adventures in Avalon, and its epic scale is a testament to the hard work of this independent team.

Look, in the middle of all this chaos, the world does have atmosphere. Gritty, creepy, and weirdly beautiful at times, it’s just so unfortunate that the graphic fidelity is so freaking inconsistent.
