Fables & Fiends: The Legend of Kyrandia - Book One

DOS - 1992
Also available on: Amiga - FM Towns

Arguably among the best adventure games series ever, Kyrandia games tell the stories set in the fantasy land of Kyrandia, told from 3 different perspectives: Brandon (a hero chosen to save the land), Zanthia (a Royal Mystic searching for the Anchor Stone to save Kyrandia from disappearing), and Malcolm (the evil jester from the first 2 games out to get his revenge).

Each game is better than the last, despite the annoying random elements in some puzzles which can only be solved through tenacious trial-and-error. Great games nonetheless, with a gentle sense of humor, Westwood's acclaimed graphics and user-friendly interface, and great music.

You would probably have to create a virtual machine or find an MS Dos emulator .

Awesome game, highly recommend using the Roland MT-32 with this to hear the music scores in it's full MIDI glory ;)

I solved my earlier issue and successfully installed the game, though I cannot hear any voices. How do I fix it so that I hear the voice actor's speak the dialog without having to read through all the text?

I cannot even install it! The game says that it is incompatible with the version of Windows I am running and to contact the software publisher. I cannot find an option to even choose whether to download a 32 bit or 64 bit version. There is just the one download tab. Please help if possible.

Anyone have the word needed to continue?

One of the best fantasy adventures I've ever played. Not a difficult game at all, but very engaging and fun. A must-play!
