Official description

In the faraway land of Ishmeria, six magicians and a dragon were trapped in the gems of the crown of Gemfire. With the power of the crown, King Eselred had the ability to help the people of his Kingdom. But instead of using the crown for good, he tapped into its evil side and used it to destroy the towns and fields. In a valiant attempt to save the Kingdom from annihilation, Princess Robyn freed the gems from the crown, breaking the spell of the Gemfire. As the Prince (or Princess) of a noble family, you must now find the gems and reunite them with the crown and restore order in Ishmeria. On your journey, you'll have to fight all kinds of enemies in turn-based combat, using your battle skills as well as magic spells to emerge victorious. The fate of Ishmeria is in your hands, don't let the people down!
