Companions of Xanth

Companions of Xanth is cool quest game. What should an ordinary teenager from a good family do after breaking up with a girlfriend? That's right, forget about an interesting computer game! And it was not clear to young Douglas that a demon from a parallel world slipped him a CD with a toy. They, demons, also sometimes get bored, here are two immortal creatures and decided to make a sweepstake: by cunning, to lure two earthly inhabitants into their reality and argue which of them will find the first mysterious Prize first. But no matter what the jockeys award is, the real bet in this contest is much higher ...

Companions will help to settle in the world of Zant Doug and his rival Kim - local residents, paired with whom earthlings (in the local dialect - Landed) will be looking for their Prize. The companion is always ready to give the player who is at a standstill kind advice and will willingly perform any action that the teenager himself can’t do. Choosing a companion or companion, Doug is transferred to the other world - and then real miracles begin. The boy’s materialistic views played a trick on him: his lack of faith in magic made him look like ... a computer monitor in Zante. The hero will be able to turn back into a person only if he accepts the existence of magic for granted, and until then he will have to rely on his companion in everything and listen to replicas that match his appearance (“Oh, save us from this misfortune, good screen!” )

The gameplay and control should be familiar to anyone who has ever played Legend quests: inventory is on the bottom, a list of text commands is on the left, and below them is a cursor block for controlling movement between locations. The tasks as a whole are simple and pose no problems for the admirer of the middle-hand genre. To prevent the player from accidentally getting lost, the game even has a map mode.
