Clan O'Conall and the Crown of the Stag is a 2D, art-driven puzzle-platformer inspired by Celtic mythology.

Set in the land of Hibernia, Clan O’Conall and the Crown of the Stag is a 2D, art-led puzzle-platformer featuring iconic settings from the first millenium, as you step into the boots of the O’Conall siblings and embark on a quest to defeat demonic forces in order to save their kingdom from destruction!

The aim of Clan O’Conall and the Crown of the Stag is for players to seamlessly switch between each character, using their unique skills and abilities to overcome a mix of dastardly puzzles and platforms, fearsome enemies and epic bosses.  Clakshot the archer, Kilcannon the warrior and Haggish the brute are masters of the bow, blade and the fist. All three characters are instantly interchangeable in the heat of battle, allowing players to shift between them at the press of a button to overcome any situation, be it on the ground, high in the trees or soaring through the air. As heirs to Chief Ardan’s throne, the trio must valiantly battle their way through enemy hordes and bosses towards their ultimate destiny of defeating Caoránach, the Mother of Demons.

Action-packed adventure awaits players on their travels through the hand-crafted worlds of Mortals, the Fae and Demons; each teeming with supernatural beings that bring the world of Celtic mythology to life. HitGrab has achieved this effect by weaving together a rich tapestry of modern graphic styles and expertly-crafted platforming with intricate manuscript illustrations and enchanting ancient Celtic designs & folklore.


Key Features:

  • Dynamic Character Swaps: Whether you’re on the ground or in the air you’ll need to quickly change between the warrior, the archer, and the brute to maximise the effectiveness of each character's special abilities to tackle increasingly challenging obstacles and villains.
  • Explore Celtic Lore: Discover the nearly unknown world of Celtic mythology as you wander through the fantastical landscapes full of supernatural beings including the Sluagh: spirits of the restless dead, and Aos Sí: supernatural spirits like elves and fairies.
  • Legendary Visual Style: A style inspired by manuscript illustration and ancient Celtic design, combined with modern graphic styles of the recent past and present. The art is a true showcase of the beauty and mythology of Celtic lore from ancient Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.

Clan O'Conall And The Crown Of The Stag is coming to PC (Steam) on April 28, 2021.
