Ever read the 1001 Arabian Nights? One of the all time favorite character from there has got to be Sinbad, and here's a game about him!
This game offers great diversity and that's why I like it so much. It's a combination of a strategy game and an adventure game. You play Sinbad, the legendary hero, who is fighting the Black Prince. Your main goal is, to defeat him. In order to do that, you must complete the quest. You need certain things and there are characters in the game, which will be able to aid you. When you come across such a person a dialogue screen appears. Be careful what you say, because your words do matter.
There is also hardship on the way. There are various creatures you'll need to fight and there's even an arcade section, when you have to escape the underground caverns before you get caved in. You travel both on land and see (as Sinbad is after all a sailor) and thus you need to keep a sharp eye out for treacherous rock. If you wreck your ship, the game is over!
But there is also a strategy part of the game. Sinbad carries a green compass with him, with some icons on it. If you click on the soldier, you'll see the strategy map. White units are the ones under your control and the black ones are the enemy. You must prevent the black units to reach the city in the middle of the map.
This game really offers so much diversity and fun, that I can not help myself but to rate generously. There are some downsides to it though. Saving would be of great help (for start). So every time you die (loose all your lives), you'll have to start all over again.
Enjoy!

Very good graphics, especially those oriental pixelated beauties... Wouldn't mind meeting one of them.

It gives a nice oriental touch to the game, just don't expect it to charm snakes (that's India not Arabia anyway).

The game is very good, but too many things are going on, so it can get overwhelming.

| A great looking and sounding game that's worth a try, but it's kinda tricky to win. |
