Storyline

Prince Alexander of Daventry (Robbie Benson) travels to a kingdom of islands after he sees the distressed image of the lady he loves, Princess Cassima, in a magic mirror. He arrives to find all of the islands fighting, Cassima locked away, her parents killed, and everything is under the hand of an evil vizir. In order to rescue both the princess and her home, Alexander must reunite the islands and find a way into the castle before Cassima is forced to marry the vizir. Written by Max Vaughn

Trivia

In this game, Samhain is portrayed as a mediator between this world and the next for the souls of the recently departed. Samhain is actually the name for an ancient Celtic festival which commemorates the dead from which present-day Halloween is derived, and is not the name of a deity or other personage of ancient Celtic polytheism. However, the idea of Samhain being an ancient Celtic religious figure dates back to at least the late first century, thanks largely to an Irish bishop named Cormac mac CuilennĂ in and his book "Sanas Cormaic" (Irish Gaelic for "Cormac's Narrative"), which identified Samhain as such.

Quotes

[as Alexander reaches to open the gate, it wears the form of malicious-looking face]
Gate: What touch awakens my sleep? I smell the blood of a mortal! Reach forward thine hand, mortal, so I may devour it. It has been centuries since I last ate.

Excellent game.
15 March 2001 | by (Akron, Ohio.) – See all my reviews

While basically borrowing the same idea that made up "King's Quest II", this game is really quite original. Plot: Prince Alexander is looking for Princess Cassima, who we met in the previous game. The graphics are great, and, even though it's a click-icon game, it's quite challenging. Definitely a worthwhile game, a great adventure.
