Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon

April 4, 2026 - Reading time: ~1 minute - Category: game library project

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon has been marketed as "indie Skyrim", and after playing for a little over an hour, it certainly feels like it. I've just finished the tutorial dungeon/area, and I really like the game so far. The movement and combat feels almost exactly like Skyrim, for better or worse. There's tons of lootable items, a bunch of weapons, magic, armor, and food. The voice acting seems pretty well done, and I haven't run into any glitches or crashes yet like you see with Bethesda games.

I'm probably going to have to decide between this and Crimson Desert for my next big game, and right now I'm leaning towards this. It feels really good to play.

Verdict: Keep Playing

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting. 

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Another project I'm working on is my Pokemon Living Dex Challenge, where I try to obtain one of each available Pokemon and transfer them into Pokemon Home.

Yet another project I'm working on is my Old School RuneScape "Completionist" Quest, where I'm attempting to max out all skills and see everything the game has to offer as a completely new player.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
Reviews, where I post longer-form review writeups
Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
