About the Game

The world has fallen under the control of the three evil Wizards. Each of the three Wizards have gotten hold of one of the three Earth gems, magic stones that keep the world in balance. With the Earth gems in possession, the evil Wizards can summon demonic creatures and cast spells over mortal beings. Legend says that the one who possesses all of the three Earth gems will gain powers to rule all others.

While the Wizards fight each other for the possession of the Earth gems, the kingdom is at war, struggling to fight the demons spreading across the land. One brave knight has been chosen to defeat the Wizards before they make the Earth their playground.

Fight the demons and gain experience

As the chosen knight, you start your quest equipped only with your shield and your sword. As you venture into the lands, you will encounter the many beasts that the wizards have conjured. You must fight them off, gaining experience and finding items as you explore the map. Trade experience points for new spells and use items to get access to new areas on the map. The knowledge of how to slay the demonic creatures has been scattered across the land. Collect the pages of the lorebook to gain wisdom of how to defeat the monsters you encounter and bring the knowledge back to the people.
