The Legend of Kyrandia (Book One)

These games bring my childhood alive again. Such great games for underdeveloped graphics

Bought these for the nostaglia.

I have all three Kyrandia adventures and this is the most dated (I would recommend Kyrandia 2 HOF which I still go back to and play even to this very date). This one has got a maze, impossible puzzle (try to find that gem on one of the screens that is hidden in the grass to name one). But also a lot of humor (even though I played it many years ago 'another big sign but no front door') and the absolutely lovely music that all three have. This is a charming fairy tale from an age when adventures where right at the top of most beautiful and expensive games. If you like those and don't mind looking in a helpthrough from time to time and can overcome one maze then I can really recommend it (and if you like this one you probably want to play the other two also).

One of the first games I ever bought. Beautiful artwork, interesting story and infuriating gameplay. There are several illogical puzzles which involve "try every combination" and there are many ways to die so you need to remember to save often. Still worth a go if you enjoy this type of game though and the others in the series are better.

Lot of weird puzzels with no hints and a lot of useless junk
