The Legend of the Elves

Moby ID: 81620

Description

The Legend of the Elves is a fantasy point & click graphic adventure about a young elf named Eric, who lives with his family on a small island. One day Eric arrives at home, expecting to be greeted by his parents and younger sibling, only to find the house deserted. He finds a note pinned to the wall with a knife that tells him his family has been kidnapped, and there is a hefty ransom for their return. Eric doesn't have the money to pay the ransom, and sets off on a quest to save his family.

The interface splits the screen vertically into two sections: the top half shows the current scene from a third-person perspective, and underneath is a panel that shows the items you are currently carrying, as well as six action buttons: "Pick up", "Talk to", "Use", "Give", "Look at", and "Throw".
