People say that in the dark dungeons of the Lonely Mountain resides a terrifying, undead being - the Lord of Bones. Under his orders he has hosts of skeletons animated by grim magic. Legend has it that there are treasures stored in abyssal chests, which the ruler jealously guards. Your task is to defeat the dark Bone Lord. To do so, you will traverse the gloomy underworld, fight undead servants and acquire the equipment necessary for the further expedition. In the final battle, you will face the titular Bone Lord to put an end to his rule and obtain his treasures. Whoever completes the game with the most treasures will become the hero of legends and songs of local bards. He will also win the whole game, but after all, it's mostly about fame and gold, right? —description from the publisher Man sagt, dass die dunklen Verliese des Einsamen Berges die Heimat einer schrecklichen, untoten Kreatur sind - dem Herrn der Knochen. Unter seinem Kommando stehen Heerscharen von Skeletten, die von düsterer Magie beseelt sind. Der Legende nach lagern dort Schätze in abgrundtiefen Truhen, die der Herrscher eifersüchtig bewacht. Eure Aufgabe ist es, den dunklen Herrn der Knochen zu besiegen. Dazu durchqueren Sie düstere Verliese, bekämpfen untote Diener und beschaffen sich die notwendige Ausrüstung für die weitere Expedition. Im letzten Kampf trittst du gegen den titelgebenden Knochenherrn an, um seine Herrschaft zu beenden und seine Schätze zu erobern. Wer das Spiel mit den meisten Schätzen beendet, wird zum Helden der Legenden und Lieder der lokalen Barden. Er wird auch das gesamte Spiel gewinnen, aber schließlich geht es ja hauptsächlich um Ruhm und Gold, nicht wahr? —description from the publisher (German) Ludzie powiadaj?, ?e w mrocznych lochach Samotnej Góry przebywa przera?aj?ca, nieumar?a istota — W?adca Ko?ci. Pod swoimi rozkazami ma zast?py szkieletów o?ywionych ponur? magi?. Legenda g?osi o skarbach zgromadzonych w przepastnych kufrach, których w?adca zazdro?nie strze?e. Waszym zadaniem jest pokonanie mrocznego W?adcy Ko?ci. W tym celu b?dziecie przemierza? ponure podziemia, walczy? z nieumar?ymi s?ugami i zdobywa? ekwipunek niezb?dny w dalszej wyprawie. W ko?cowej bitwie zmierzycie si? z tytu?owym W?adc? Ko?ci, aby po?o?y? kres jego rz?dom i zdoby? jego skarby. Kto uko?czy gr? z najwi?ksz? liczb? skarbów, stanie si? bohaterem legend i pie?ni okolicznych bardów. Wygra te? ca?? rozgrywk?, ale przecie? g?ównie chodzi o s?aw? i z?oto, prawda? —description from the publisher (Polish)
