There's a number of different swords you run into along the way, but you'll also be able to get your mitts on hammers, battles axes, and similar middle-age style weaponry. The thing is that most gamers are likely to focus their attention on upgrading sword skills rather than hammer and axe abilities. This will happen for a number of reasons. Swinging massive axes and hammers takes a bit of time, but the power of the punch isn't powerful enough to justify the extended swing time.
The sword, however, is lighter, quicker, and easier to brandish. Even though some elements of the combat in Conan are actually enjoyable, these balancing issues may ward off many gamers. Plus, the game's general lack of depth and the whole slicing and dicing thing soon becomes quite tedious maybe if a few limbs would fall off now and then Saving your status in this game involves visiting the almighty war God, Crom.
When Conan dies in battle he gets another chance to prove himself in the presence of Crom. Success will allow you to pick up where you left off, whereas losing will spell the end of your quest. Magic stones can also be collected across levels, giving you the possibility of saving the game. Of course, there's a limited amount of these stones in every level, so you are required to spend them wisely.
From a certain standpoint, this aspect can be regarded as one of the rare innovative and enjoyable moments throughout the whole experience. Then again, playing through standard and generally tiring hack'n'slash segments of the game won't exactly motivate gamers to play on. We weren't entirely pleased with the controls either.
They appear to work fine when it comes to maneuvering Conan himself, but panning the camera around can cause a few annoying situations during gameplay.
For example, during certain battles Conan would seem too far off for players to discern exactly what they're doing or what they're supposed to be doing. Traveling through the hazardous regions of Hyborea, players encounter heaps of baddies, such as wolves, cavemen, colossal sharp-toothed polar bears, wraith-like creatures, and so on.
To flavor the gameplay a wee bit, the lads at Cauldron threw in a slew of boss-creatures. This makes the game a bit more challenging It depends on how you define challenging. None of the bosses really exhibits any remarkable fighting abilities or intelligence. In fact, some of them are weird-looking ghost-like fiends that simply shoot magic fireballs at you incessantly, and since Conan doesn't have any long-ranged weapons, it boils down to dodging and then moving in closer for the kill.
For those having difficulty running this after the v1. Step 2. Download Conan v1. Step 3. Extract the Conan. Step 4. Play the game. Ben -1 point. Game works But then I installed the update exe and it told me I needed disc.
