+    (description "Knights is a multiplayer game involving several knights who
+must run around a dungeon and complete various quests.  Each game revolves
+around a quest – for example, you might have to find some items and carry them
+back to your starting point.  This may sound easy, but as there are only
+enough items in the dungeon for one player to win, you may end up having to
+kill your opponents to get their stuff!  Other quests involve escaping from
+the dungeon, fighting a duel to the death against the enemy knights, or
+destroying an ancient book using a special wand.")
