Morte Arthure
Morte Arthure is a four-player narrative board game in which players control characters from Arthurian legend in their fight against the villainous Mordred. The characters travel Arthurian Britain, completing quests, battling foes, and garnering loyalty in preparation for the climactic battle at Camlann, where according to Merlin’s prophecies King Arthur is fated to die. The 100+ pages of narrative content are contained in a companion app, available online on Itch.io.
Morte Arthure was developed by a small team of students at the University of Southern California. Sam Sobel was the project director and lead designer.
The design team demos Morte Arthure at the USC Games Expo 2024
