The Mystery of the Dragon Prince-Solve the mystery and save a prince

*The Mystery of the Dragon Prince* is an adventure game that requires users
to solve puzzles in order to advance. If you grew up in the 80s and 90s
loving Sierra games like Kings Quest 3: To Heir is Human from the popular
Kings Quest series, The Mystery of the Dragon Prince should be right up your
alley. Players step into the shoes of Anna, a normal woman leading a mundane
life, until one day a letter written centuries ago arrives in her name. Anna
is invited to an old castle and quickly finds herself knee deep in a mystery
she's determined to solve. The Mystery of the Dragon Prince requires players
to *solve puzzle games* of varying levels of difficulty to advance in the
game. Some of these include *memorizing sequences, locating certain items or
arranging pictures into the correct order*. Although not terribly difficult
to complete, some of the puzzles can get a little repetitive or be
time-consuming in a way that might make more action-oriented players lose
interest. The graphics in The Mystery of the Dragon Prince are good but not
spectacular. The Mystery of the Dragon Prince's imagery is very reminiscent
to games you would see in the mid to late 90s in terms of quality and detail.
Most of the game takes place in still frames, with more detailed insets being
where you complete the puzzles. On very rare occasion, an action frame is
included, although these are brief. Interaction with other characters in The
Mystery of the Dragon Prince is done via text that appears on the screen.
Oftentimes if you click on a character or an object repeatedly, you're bound
to get repetitive responses. Many conversations or text pop-ups contain clues
that you'll need to solve future puzzles as well. *The Mystery of the Dragon
Prince is a fun game for lovers of older, more traditional PC games.*Download
