Five Magical Amulets is a fairy tale in every sense of the word: massive in its scope, fanciful and legendary in its story-telling, packaged with the ideal presentation for children and family-minded gamers to enjoy. As a traditional third-person adventure, it is a pure throwback to games like Legend of Kyrandia and King's Quest IV, and in fact excels past those games in many respects. You play a girl named Linda, who was abandoned as a child and raised by the enchantress Twelga. On Linda's eighteenth birthday, her foster mother explains to her the secret that keeps life in the country of Nyron in balance: the titular amulets. The evil wizard Zarkyran has come to possess one of the amulets and has been driven mad by its power, and will now stop at nothing to add the remaining four to his collection. Twelga gives Linda the one amulet that she has been guarding and sends her on a quest to find the remaining amulets and stop Zarkyron's plans.
