About

This game began life as "King Arthur's Adventure" before Astrovision secured the Conan the Barbarian license. The game was advertised during 1981-1982 but was never released at the time. It later changed name again, this time to Quest For The Orb. Neither Quest for the Orb would see a release as Astrovision/Astrocade hit financial troubles. Eventually a working prototype made its way to Dave Carson Software in 1985 and was released under the Conan the Barbarian name.

Storyline

Fearsome monsters give chase through a series of mazes as Conan, armed with his sword, battles them. Various levels allow you to play this adventure game with skills ranging from novice to professional. See how many monsters you can get.
