4About it

The sword in the stone comes from the old legends of King Arthur of Britain. A sword was stuck fast in a great stone, and only the true king could pull it out. Many strong knights tried and failed, until the young Arthur drew it out easily and was made king.

Tap it to try: the sword sticks at first and wiggles, then slides free and rises in a shower of golden sparkles. Tap again to put it back in the stone. The Arthur stories have been told and retold for more than 800 years. With ✋ Hands-on on, pull the sword up by hand: it sticks and wiggles at first, then slides free and stays where you let go; push it back in with a clank.
