6 evil wizards steal the 6 jewels of peace. Dink is ordered to retrieve the emeralds or he will be executed.

In this Demo you get to find one wizard, fight him and then start the journey to the next village. Milder appears to block a bridge – but I thought he died at the end of the original game.

Graphics: Some modified wizards, some jewels and a few nice full screen bmps and item graphics.

Map: pretty solid with a fair amount of decoration.

Music: Didn’t notice it, although there is an end credit for new ones.

Sounds: Didn’t notice any new ones

Game play: solid but easy. Some things aren’t scripted like the poster stuck on a tree, but others are which all helps to add to the suspension of disbelief. The meteor idea I thought a nice touch.

Only one save spot –not sure why, may because it is a demo.

Overall: A nicely put together demo DMOD – no bugs that I could find. Not a whole lot to do, though and pretty easy.

Score: 8 out of 10
