About this game

In Knights of the Crystallion, a city has been built from the bones of a long-dead Orodrid creature. As a member of one of the families controlling the city, your goal is to find and hatch a Crystallion egg hidden within the Tsirit, the creature's skull.

The journey is divided into several distinct gameplay sections:

  • Tsirit: Explore maze-like, monster-infested paths using plasma bolts and a protective suit.
  • Bosu: Play a marble-based board game encountered within the Tsirit.
  • Proda: Arrange matching pairs of crystals so beams of light can charge them.
  • Haresh: Manage your family through financial trading, securing fair prices for produced goods and purchasing essential food, clothing, and other supplies. Contributions must also be made to the Tsirit.

Developed by Bill Williams and published by U.S. Gold, the game was released for Amiga in 1989.
