As Conan returns from another successful adventure, he finds that a band of masked warriors has destroyed his village and murdered his uncle, bad move. Now it's time for Revenge!

"Conan" is a 3D hack'n'slash action title which blends RPG elements by awarding experience points for each defeated enemy. Said points can be spent on a plethora of fighting skills which are then triggered via a simple combo system for spectacular results as you battle hordes of human warriors and supernatural monsters from beyond in your quest for revenge. Should you fall to a well placed blow, Conan offers you the chance to try and regain your honor in the domains of Crom, were a small arena fight can restore your honor and bring you back to life and continue the game or damn you to eternity should you fail.

Set in primeval times, players assume the role of the uncomplicated Conan. And making the best possible use of his brute strength and merciless approach towards life's obstacles, a scantily clad Conan sets out on an epic quest with only with his blade for protection.

The adventure itself is a 3D, free-roaming affair, complete with numerous themed environments such as icy lakes and volcanic regions. The game also comes with a variety of graphical effects that, although not outstanding by themselves, combine to make the game as a whole look believable, if a little cartoon-like. And as you begin to explore these hostile locations, you'll be met with myriad wolves and beasts, most of which will be hungry for your blood. Your task is simply to dispose of them and move on to the next area. The more enemies you finish off, the more experience you gain, enabling you to learn stronger fighting abilities. And that's the role-playing aspect of the adventure. Additionally, various items and weapons can be discovered along the way, such as battle maces and potions for restoring health.

Also available is a multiplayer Arena mode in which you can duke it out mano-a-mano with other human players as Conan or a selection of original characters. Features the original licensed soundtrack from the Conan movies by Basil Poledouris.
