Adventurous journey of three goblins to rescue enchanted and somewhat desperate king. Great adventure full of humor, crazy ideas, and especially great fun to play, definitely recommend, one of top old games. With such royal feasts are expected many things, but what happened in our case, surprised the roast piglet who otherwise is peaceful. This time the culprit was not too much alcohol or spoiled food, but a little mischievous wizard who toyed with a little voodoo doll of our beloved king. The king suffered a lot and I think that it is now clear who must rescue the king - you!

Game review

An adventurous journey of three goblins to save an enchanted and somewhat desperate king. A great adventure full of humor, crazy ideas and most importantly great fun, I definitely recommend.
A lot of things are expected at such royal banquets, but what happened in our case also surprised the roasted piglet, who was otherwise lying on his own tray with peace of mind. This time, however, it wasn't so much alcohol or spoiled food that was to blame, but a rather mischievous wizard who played around with the voodoo doll of our beloved king. The poor man has suffered his own, and I think it is already clear what your task is.

Yes, saving the king is a tough nut to crack, but with the help of clever reason and combination skills, it can certainly succeed. There are three goblins (Sleepy, Granny and Horney), each with its own specific skills, one can take and use items, the other can cast spells and the third can climb and use their fists. You move in one particular location and with a suitable combination of the abilities of these goblins, you gradually move on. This whole action is made even more difficult by the fact that in the event of a mistake, your energy is reduced, which is shown at the bottom of the screen, and if it shamelessly drops to zero, then you are ... where you did not want to be.

The whole game is literally full of humorous scenes and gags of all kinds, which is also reflected in its graphics, which look very exciting. Probably the most telling is the scene in the cave, where the main role will be played by a mummy and an idiot - you just have to see their faces to understand ...

I think the difficulty and scope is at the golden mean level, where the logic and illogy of the tasks bother you, but in time they will let you go. Overall, a well-executed game with everything, full of fun and original in its processing and concept.
