Bard's Gold's story is as simple as it gets: The Bard, who the player controls, is minding his own business trying to catch some z's under a tree when
some creepy little goblin runs by and swipes his gold.
Little kids will hide under the seats at the sight of the Orcs (especially their scarred leader), the
creepy Gollum (Andy Serkis) and the
goblins, whose underground scrabbling is reminiscent of the 2005 British horror movie The Descent.
