Free England from the tyranny of King John! You head the revolt and launch your troops against the castles. The famed knight Ivanhoë will join your forces to liberate the land from tyranny. In this family game, each player aims to conquer the largest number of castles, installing his arms in each. But watch out for the other players --they could make your blazon end up in the oubliettes!
There are three levels of rules: children, family, adults.
