Tar declared himself Lord Tarbos and brought terror to the land of Lyramion, before being locked away in a secure prison on the world's red moon.
Now, a sorcerer named Marmion is trying to release him, with the intention of spreading horror through the land.
A lone adventurer from the town of Twinlake must gather thirteen pieces of a powerful artifact known as Amberstar to prevent that from happening.
Amberstar is a role-playing game which uses a top-down view for overworld travel and most indoor locations, and switches to a first-person pseudo-3D perspective when exploring cities and dungeons.
Initially the player creates a single protagonist with randomly assigned attributes and no class designation.
During the course of the game, additional characters (up to six active party members) can be found in different cities and other locations and recruited.
Some of these characters already belong to established classes and come with their own abilities.
Guilds of various classes (fighter, paladin, ranger, mage, monk, and thief) can be visited, where the protagonist and his class-less companions (if any) can be promoted.
Choice of classes affects attributes, character growth, imposes equipment restrictions, etc.
When leveling up, characters can train in specific locations, increasing attributes of the player's choice.
Enemy encounters may occur at specific points in the overworld, or by approaching a visible enemy in a dungeon.
The view then switches to overhead, with the combatants displayed on a small grid next to a window graphically presenting the enemies.
The fighting is turn-based and offers various defensive and offensive options, including tactical movement on the grid and 90 different spells.

About PC
PC gaming spans over four decades, from early DOS titles to today's massive Steam and digital-storefront libraries. Because "PC" covers everything from 1990s CD-ROM releases to current AAA titles, it's the single largest platform by game count on Gamevaro. For collectors, PC gaming splits into two very different worlds: physical big-box releases from the 1990s and 2000s (increasingly collectible, especially complete-in-box with original manuals and inserts) and the modern digital library, which Gamevaro tracks for portfolio and spending purposes even though it has no resale market.
Gamevaro tracks Amberstar for PC with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Amberstar to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PC release dates back to 1992.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
