Mystic Towers




As Baron Baldric, you are charged with keeping peace for all the common folk of the land. But when the grand Lazarine Towers are overcome with dark forces and creatures, casting an evil shadow over the land, you must wield your somewhat magical staff and set out to set things right. (Frankly, you don't want the job, but there's currently a shortage of young warrior types around.) The Baron is a lovable character who will win your heart with his many animations and mannerisms. But beware, this not-so-young hero guy can still kick a little bootie if he has to! He wields a magic staff like nobody's business.

30 different monsters! They crawl, slither, fly, roll, hop and anything else you can imagine. There are new scenery graphics and monsters in each of the six castles/episodes. Play with the mouse, keyboard or joystick. Supports higher resolution of 320 x 240 VGA. Ability to "practice" any level for a good preview. Complex character; Baron Baldric can jump, push, pull, flip switches, open doors, become poisoned, and climb. Game map to see where you are at all times. Many different weapon spells including fireballs and venom spells. Find coins to buy more spells.

Mystic Towers is an action-oriented and puzzle filled game of exploration and magic. There is no other game like it in the Apogee line. Most likely, you've never seen another game like it anywhere!
