This game is for one player only, and all control is on hand controller #1. The joystick moves Conan around inside the arena. The knob raises and lowers Conan's sword. The trigger exchanges the sword between Conan's left and right hand. To slay evil creatures, use the sword by turning the knob. If strength, stamina, or defenses fail, 'FAREWELL WARRIOR!'

Game ID: 5005

TRIVIA

AKA "Quest For The Orb." This cartridge is not finished, but did see a limited release through Dave Carson Software in 1985 (about forty were made).

Hyped up to be one of the greatest games Astrocade players would ever see, and the first video game to spin off from a movie. They failed to secure the rights, however, and the game continued development as 'Quest For The Orb.'
