Ambermoon

Cancelled ports and translations

Versions for Atari ST and PC were in development, but were never released due to the demise of Thalion in 1994. The Amiga box is indeed a combined Amiga/Atari ST box, given the technical specs for the ST version and even declares the support of the Atari Falcon. Likewise, only the German version was released. Thalion finished the English version of the game, but it was never released commercially, although it has appeared on the Internet by now. The manual features nevertheless loading instructions and programming credits for a MS-DOS version.

Extras

Just like its predecessor Amberstar, the game (at least the German version of it) shipped with a poster-size map of the world it's set in and with a "rune table" that translates the normal Latin alphabet into the runic alphabet many signs in the game are written in.
