Beyond Shadowgate — About this game
Prince Erik returns to claim his place in the royal line, only to be accused of his father's murder and imprisoned through the royal advisor's plot. The adventure follows his escape and search for the truth through locations filled with characters, clues and usable objects. Explore carefully, inspect suspicious details and consider how an item might solve a problem in a different scene. Conversations can change the meaning of an earlier discovery, so the story rewards attention as much as experimentation. Escaping the first danger opens a wider investigation into who benefits from Erik's disgrace.
