Grail Quest

About this expansion

Grail Quest is a 1980 Arthurian-themed programmed adventure for 1–5 players, with a listed play time of 60 minutes. It was created as MicroQuest #3 in the Metagaming MicroQuests series.

This adventure is designed for use with Melee and Wizard, expanding both Fantasy Trip games. Its programmed format presents the adventure through book look-ups, making the rulebook the central guide to the experience.

The product includes a single rulebook containing both the rules and the programmed adventure, along with one sheet of 42 counters. The counters should be mounted before play.

• Arthurian-themed fantasy setting
• Programmed adventure with book look-ups
• 42 counters included for mounting
• Expands Melee and Wizard

Grail Quest is notable within The Fantasy Trip as the only product in the line based on existing fantasy or mythology. That Arthurian foundation gives this MicroQuest a distinct place in the series while connecting it directly to the rules and play systems of Melee and Wizard.

The author, Guy McLimore, stated on the Steve Jackson Games forum that he would attempt to regain copyright to the title, with a possible republication by Steve Jackson Games mentioned in the source description. This historical note adds context to the game’s place in The Fantasy Trip product line.
