Camelot is a strategy board game for two players. One of the first games published by Parker Brothers, it was invented late in the 19th century by George S. Parker and originally published under the name Chivalry.
The game (reduced in size and number of pieces, and reissued as "Camelot" in 1930) flourished through dozens of editions and numerous variants, achieving its greatest popularity in the 1930s, but remained in print through the late 1960s. In the 1980s, Parker Brothers briefly republished the game under the name Inside Moves. Since then the game has been out of print, but retains a core of fans who look forward to another revival.
Camelot is easily learned and without extensive praxis or theory, thus perhaps more accessible for novices to play and enjoy compared to either chess or checkers. The game is exceptionally tactical almost from the first move, and therefore quick to play to a conclusion.
