	Description Edit \| History

From the game box:

Barbarian Prince is a solitaire game of heroic adventure in a forgotten age of barbarism and sorcery. No opponent is necessary, as the Event Booklet takes you through a pre-programmed sequence of encounters which is different each time you play the game. For each event, you, as the Barbarian Prince Cal Arath, must make the decisions which will make your quest successful - or may cost you your life.

Barbarian Prince is a new concept in Adventure Gaming. No rules reading is required; the programmed event sequence lets you begin play as soon as you open the box.

Barbarian Prince contains - A full-color 12"x14" mapboard, a die, rules folder, Event Booklet, and summary sheet - and a detailed cast metal figure of the Barbarian Prince to mark your position on the board.

A print-and-play version of this game is available for free, authorized download from http://dwarfstar.brainiac.com/.

Improved Travel Table

Lists all the encounters by name instead of by those cryptic numbers! Makes the game less random as the player can make more informed decisions. It doesn't spoil the purity of the game because it simply organizes information already available to the player. This document is a drop-in replacement for r207 Travel Table, r231-r280 Travelling Event References, r230 Raft Travel Events, and r281 Special Travel Reference, as well as r208 Searching a Ruins.
