Barbarian (1987 video game)

It was first developed for the Atari ST, and was ported to the Amiga, Commodore 64, MS-DOS, MSX, Amstrad CPC, and ZX Spectrum.

In the game, the player is Hegor, a barbarian who must traverse several dungeons and underground habitats to defeat his brother, the evil sorcerer Necron.

The game used very detailed and colorful sprites and a variety of thoughtful sound effects to accompany the onscreen action.

The IBM PC version plays digitized speech in the opening sequence and other sound effects using the speaker.

[2] A review in Amstrad Action issue 40 gave the game 81%, stating it was "fun, but lacking in the long term".
