The game is based on the 1975 film ''[[Monty Python and the Holy Grail]]'' and was the second of three [[Monty Python]] games created by 7th Level. ==Aesthetics== The game aesthetics are a mixture of photo realistic rendering and the comic style of [[Terry Gilliam]]. The objective is to move through the world and collect a series of objects in order to cross the bridge of death. The game also contains a series of sketches and audio clips not present in the film, including an alternative reason for the minstrel's disappearance. ==Gameplay== Many minigames are available to play along the way, including a [[Tetris]] clone using dead plague victims, a [[whack-a-mole]] game where a knight has to spank virgins in a bed (points are deducted for spanking the bare-cheeked women) and a [[Simon says]] game where the player has to remember the order that four different coloured burning witches scream in. The majority of the game is a point and click interface, where the player must also collect items to complete puzzles, and complete the missing planks on the bridge of death. ==Reception== The game has had mixed reviews. MobyGames gave it 3.5,<ref>[http://www.mobygames.com/game/monty-python-the-quest-for-the-holy-grail MobyGames]</ref> GameSpot 7.5/10,<ref>[http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/adventure/montypythonandtheqfthg/review.html?mode=web&tag=scoresummary%3Bcritic-score Gamespot]</ref> PC Zone gave 6.9/10 <ref>[http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=3214 PC Zone]</ref> ==Crew== *''[[Terry Gilliam]]'' - Director *''[[Terry Jones]]'' - Director / voice actor *''Steve Martino'' - Creative Director *''Alex Yevgenyev'' - Technical Director *''Charles Otte'' - Producer *''Robert Alan Ezrin'' - Executive Producer *''[[Eric Idle]]'' - Executive Producer / Writing Consultant / voice actor *''Hollis Leech'' - Supervising Producer *''Jon M.
