The Magic Candle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Magic Candle is a computer role-playing game designed by Ali Atabek and developed and published by Mindcraft in 1989. In the game, players must assemble a group of six adventurers and journey across the kingdom of Deruvia to keep the demon Dreax imprisoned in the eponymous magic candle, which has begun to melt. The game's world includes several towns and cities, two castles, and several dungeons and towers. Unlike many computer games, one wins not by defeating a final enemy, but by collecting the necessary items and learning the necessary chants in order to preserve the magic candle.
In the game, players begin with one adventurer, a human hero called Lukas. Additional adventurers can be found in the game's two castles, and come from Human, Dwarf, Elf, Halfling, and Wizard races.
The Magic Candle was successful enough to have sequels: The Magic Candle II: The Four and Forty (1991), and The Magic Candle III (1992). The Keys to Maramon (1990) was an action-title spinoff. Bloodstone, released in 1993, is a prequel to The Magic Candle.
