Description
A challenge has been set by the Druids of the High Temple! You and your tribe have to compete with up to three others to find the Moonstone and bring it back to the Stone Circle. The prize is ultimate power!

Sounds simple enough if it wasn't for the small matter of the Black Knights.

They have other ideas. Their masters have sworn them to destroy the Moonstone - and you with it.

They have a whole gang of extremely nasty friends to help them. These include hammer-wielding Trogs, vicious Ratmen, Mudmen of the wetlands and the terrible lady known as The Guardian.

Moonstone is a remarkable combination of fast, aggressive combat action and subtle role-play that, perhaps uniquely, challenges your brain - while it covers you in gore.

Oh, by the way, if the sight of so much blood upsets you, don't worry. The blood is an option!

Board games meet Video games, with gore

First review on GoG just to tell everybody that this game is totally amazing. I played it on the Amiga when I was a kid, then I played it again later, on Amiga emulator and nostalgia quite killed me... So, the game. You are a knight of one of these 4 reigns. You roam around on a map, visiting places, fighting monsters, buying stuff and gambling. Enemies are mercyless, fighting are gruesome and, as in old days game, you can loose if you fight badly. Animations and graphics are beautiful to see and help you enter this misterious game. Plan your moves ahead, try not to be killed while you explore the world and its different biomes. Collect useful equipment, make experience and fight other knights on your quest to find the keys and reach for the moonstone. Is this not enough? Play this game on a couch with up to three friends, fight them and loot their precious items. So go and look for the keys, solve the mistery of Moonstone and play again. Call some friends, whine and cry when they'll kill you and steal you everything, loose the game, then play again. One of the best game ever :)

More than 20 years ago, I loved playing this game on my elder brother's Amiga 500, finished it many times. I still remember the first time I finished it, it was pure joy. A few years back, I finished it again on my emulator. Not the same joy with the childhood win, that's for sure, but the game had the same charm it had back in 90s. This is one of those games that will never get old. Just be wary of potential heart attacks in the swamp region encounters. The chills... Nightmare fuel :) I never played this game with a friend, but I guess it would be really enjoyable considering the flow and mechanics of the game. The music is totally captivating, too.

Awesome game

“Beware of the fierce baloks of the northern wastelands” You will be saying this for 30 years after playing this. Just get it. An absolutely unique game.

A childhood memory

OMG! I have looked for this game for so long; I think I had it from some dodgy site and it only worked on Dosbox. The crazy story of why I love this game so much is, back in the day, I used to go hang at a mate's place and he had a job where he would finish like an hour after I got to his house. So, his little bro would fire up games on his computer and we would play this and HoMM3. Of course, he'd kick my ass even though he was about 6 years younger than me (I think he was like 8 at the time). To the game: it is one of those games that you need learn the mechanics for in order to do well. I remember a little trick that worked once and that is cornering the dragon. It is allllll about timing. This is an absolute gem, and I say this as someone who has played it when I was much younger, and also in 2010s. It stands up due to its mechanics and can still be a lot of fun today. Thank you GOG for bringing this gem to us!!!!!!!!!!!!
