People often wonder why, in the margins of medieval manuscripts, you see so many pictures of knights fighting snails? Well, now it is time for the truth to be revealed - remnants of a forgotten, terrifying history that could have altered the world as we know it today!

First look, not even played yet.... and I see run historical document and support this historical document. Well...... I'm already laughing my head off. This will be great.
Endlessly charming.

IS CADSNAEL AN ACTUAL NAME
SIR CHEVAL IS LIEUTENANT HORSE'S ANCESTOR
1. There is an excellent series of medieval historical mysteries by Ellis Peters about a monk named Cadfael. It is a very laboured pun.
2. Yes, his name translates literally into French as Sir Horse
What a great title, and such a sense of urgency. Brilliant. Pallet was spot-on too.
History will never be the same! Also I somehow got eaten by snails a lot while playing this. I love it so much. :D
The only explanation is that you are delicious
Amazing way to talk about that fact. Thank you!
Incredible.
Wow. That was great. I love the color palette and the simple art style! The writing was funny too and that 'escar-go' pun was awesome! Great job!
this is everything I didn't know I needed in a snail game. wonderful!!!!!!
this is fantastic!! also im ride or die for benjamin/sammuel now. fanfic coming soon
Great game! :D
SO GOOD OMG
This was super fun to play! The concept is awesome :) (also escar-go lol that cracked me up)
I was cackling the entire time i was playing this , so funny!
Well this was a treat!
Everything was so much more dramatic as I was listening to A Minute To Breathe by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.
The sense of urgency was almost too real.
hahaha.
Really liked the idea and the history behind it.
Cheers!
