About this game

King Graham has been crowned king after recovering three treasures, but now seeks a queen for companionship. A magic mirror reveals a beautiful maiden imprisoned in a quartz tower in the distant land of Kolyma.

To reach her, Graham must explore Kolyma and find three keys to unlock the tower. Like its predecessor, the game uses arrow-key movement and typed verb-and-noun commands. Its larger, busier world connects numerous screens and locations, while puzzles reward knowledge of fairy tales and more complex solutions.
