Evaluation

Clan O'Conall and the Crown of the Stag launched on April 27, 2021 as a complete, finished game — a hand-drawn action-platformer built on a Kickstarter-funded development cycle that began in 2018. Following launch, the developer shipped a series of post-launch updates: a bug-fix patch in May 2021, a substantial quality-of-life update (Patch 1.1) in June 2021 adding localization and new features, and a further "Monsters & Mayhem" update in July 2021 adding difficulty settings and accessibility options. The final developer communication was the St. Patrick's Day update on March 17, 2022, which delivered performance optimizations, camera improvements, level adjustments, and character balancing. Since March 17, 2022, there have been no further posts, patches, announcements, or developer communications of any kind. No DLC has ever been listed for the game, no roadmap was published, and no future content was announced. The post-launch update activity has followed a natural wind-down pattern — from bug fixes, to quality-of-life improvements, to polish — with silence since March 2022. The game appears to have reached its final state with the March 2022 update.

About this game

Set in the mythical land of Hibernia, Clan O'Conall and the Crown of the Stag is a hand-drawn action-platformer featuring iconic settings and characters from Celtic folklore and mythology.

The Mother of Demons, Caoránach, has kidnapped Chief Arden and stolen the ancient Crown of the Stag. With it, she wishes to undo a generations-old peace between the Mortals of Hibernia and the Fae Folk. All that stands between her and total calamity are the three inheritors of Clan O'Conall: Swordmaster Kilcannon, Huntress Clakshot, and Haggish the Brute.

Hero-Swapping Action-Adventure!


In Clan O'Conall, three heroes become one, as you combine the powers of the heirs O'Conall together to cross incredible distances, and exploit the weakpoints of even the most imposing foe.


Take to the skies with your boar-hide cloak, or crash through hordes of undead Sluagh with sword and spear. An ardent attacker, Kilcannon does his best work in the thick of battle.




Agility and grace are the huntress's companions, as she leaps from treetop to treetop and rains arrows down upon unsuspecting enemies below. Whether you need to move quietly beneath the brush or deliver a killing blow, Clakshot has no peer.




A lovable brute with strength matched only by musk, Haggish's brawn can move obstacles, hurl enemies, and break down even the hardest barrier. Baby brother Haggish can bring even the most bearish bosses down to size.
