About The Damsel's Tale
Damsel etiquette will tell you that you can never really trust a knight to save you properly, but as long as your dragon needs feeding, you should let them have a go. In the two-player asymmetrical strategy game The Damsel's Tale, the dragon is trying to alert his mother to the presence of a devious knight sent to steal from their ancestral treasure pile.
