The Magic Candle III game description

These games feature several other innovations over the Ultima series of games, the best example being a more complex party management system which makes it possible to divide your party of adventurers and give each party a different task.

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. Players begin with one adventurer, a human hero called Lukas.

Additional adventurers can be found in the game’s two castles. Much of The Magic Candle’s fun derives from discovering exactly what is needed to preserve the eponymous candle.

Compared to earlier games in the series, The Magic Candle III features little more than further enhanced VGA graphics and a new storyline.

In The Magic Candle III, you and your party of adventurers, which can be transferred from the previous Magic Candle games, must stop a mysterious “blight” that is spreading through the country.
