Pryzm – Chapter 1 The Dark Unicorn
Pryzm, the enchanted unicorn, and her rider Karrock have been chosen to bring health
back to the five magical lands by cleansing the plague flowers, and restoring the mutated
inhabitants with magic energy projectiles and spells. From their home land of Unicorn
Valley they venture to Gnome Hills, Troll Mountain, Nymph Marshes and Elven Woods
before they meet the Dark Unicorn in final battle.
The spells and projectiles look like fireworks – pink clusters, blue rings, falling
snowflakes. Even the evil flowers give off a red glow. At the beginning, there is a
training routine to familiarize the player with the moves, and the unicorn is easy enough
to manipulate. Pryzm, unfortunately can't fly, but she can hover.
The lands are almost uniformly gray – of course – they are cursed. However, as they are
restored, it would have been nicer had the color returned in a more spectacular fashion.
Although the concept for this game will appeal to girls – unicorn, healing and restoring
lands and colorful magic projectiles, this is basically a shooter and we all know that girls
need more than shooting to keep them interested.
