From BoardGameGeek
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 has 16 videos from 10 creators: 3 reviews, 7 playthroughs and 6 other videos. They date from 2012 to January 2025.
For an opinion before you buy, start with "Barbarian Prince Review" by MarcoOmnigamer. 3 creators have reviewed it. To see it played, watch "Barbarian Prince - Exploration 001" by Jason Young, one of 7 playthroughs.
If you like it, try Demonlord, Grav Armor and Star Viking, also by Arnold Hendrick, or Carrier Battle: Philippine Sea, which shares several of its mechanics.
