About this game

In Apprentice, defeating the dragon Fumo is the test that will establish the hero’s status as a magician. This side-scrolling platform adventure features a colorful, consolesque presentation and 17 levels, each with an additional hidden section.

Every stage has its own elemental setting, ranging from the fires of Hell to the clouds and light of Heaven. Boxes can be kicked at enemies, while money collected during the journey can be spent in shops on useful extras.

Other collectibles include leaves that alter gravity to enable higher jumps and longer periods of suspended movement, extra lives, fruit for bonus points, and balloons that provide limited vertical movement.
