    Conan: The Cimmerian is a video game that was released by Virgin Games and Synergistic Software in 1991 for Amiga and DOS.

    Reception

    Charles Ardai reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "At least, unlike most games of this ilk, Virgin has taken a stab at making Conan a creature of flesh and blood, rather than just another bunch of testosterone-tinted pixels. By letting players participate in the birth of their hero, an added layer of interest, if not actual depth, takes shape. Nietzsche it ain't, but Howard it is!"[1]
