Description from the packaging.

This is a real-time action adventure game...

"If you are the rightful ruler of the Kingdom, you must find the fabled diamond and right the wrongs of your evil predecessors.'

The journey to the ancient castle has been arduous, but your motives are unquestionable. You must carefully plan your assault on the well-guarded fortress, to successfully recover the fabled diamond, and regain control of the kingdom.

The castle has sat unused for over 1,000 years, thereby becoming a haven for roaming giants, serpents, spiders and mysterious blobs. When you succeed in gaining entrance, Hogarth your jealous cousin, usurper to the throne, seals the only known access behind you.

Your goal- find the diamond and an exit before your energy runs out. This task is surmountable only by a true ruler.

The clues and puzzles must be solved as you move through the different chambers and fight battles in real time. The action is continuous, the graphics spectacular!
