The briefing

About this game

Fantasia Diamond is a traditional text adventure with static, split-screen graphics. The titular family heirloom has been stolen and must be retrieved from a sinister riverside fortress, while Boris the Masterspy must also be rescued after being imprisoned during an earlier recovery attempt.

Along the way, you encounter elves, pixies, gnomes, and an unfriendly woodcutter. Eating and drinking restore strength, which determines how many objects you can carry. The game also features a real-time system in which characters act roughly every 15 seconds, regardless of your actions. Its text parser supports relatively complex sentences.
