Description
Kyrandia is a land of dark, mysterious forests, and sleeping dragons. A fantastic land where rubies grow on trees and magic abounds. Who would imagine that a land so idyllic would spawn a murderer so demented? Some say that the court jester, Malcolm, was mad to begin with. Others whisper in sly, conspiratorial tones that it was his burning desire to possess the precious Kyragem that slowly drove him to slay the peaceful King William.

As the rightful prince of Kyrandia, you must pursue the elusive Malcolm to recover the powerful gemstone. Only then will you be able to reclaim the throne and restore harmony to the land of Kyrandia. The Legend of Kyrandia awaits you!
  • A true classic - this forgotten gem from the early 90s is a must-have for every adventure game fan!
  • Four chapters of progressively more challenging quests that will have you casting spells, searching strangely-lit caverns, collecting gemstones, and chasing down leprechauns.
  • Bewitching scenery, smartly written dialogues, and atmospheric music will make your visit to Kyrandia unforgettable.

Legends of Kyrandia

Massive moon logic, lots of useless items and inventory management. Rng and copy paste rng backgrounds and more mazes then a corn field. Charming graphics but really obtuse point and click game.

Nostalgia is always a good trip

This game is short, you can manage to finish it in one afternoon. The graphics are a marvel for the time and the humour is fantastic.

The worst game in the series

The game itself is short, the endless labyrinths of forests and caves make it longer. But the worst thing is that it is very easy to lose the items needed to complete the game and you are at a dead end. The game is unbeatable. It is worth playing only for the background to the next parts.

Nostalgia in the best way possible!!!

Just to hear the fantastic music and the little 'blup' sound when you picked up an object makes this purchase worth every penny! The first Kyrandia game was the first (for me) adventure game with the emphasis on 'adventure'. A murdered royal couple, a young heir in hiding and a fantasy realm filled with colourfull characters and an evil jester. This gem is a must-play and there's no shame in getting a walkthrough for the infamous dark labyrinth.
