Cythera casts you as the legendary saviour of a violently divided nation. Sensing the impending downfall of the King, the ruling houses of Cythera struggle for political power in the ancient land. Some will stop at nothing to seize control.

While the houses labor to increase their own power, the neutral mages struggle for a higher consciousness and the betterment of humanity. They envision a world free from treachery and deceit. These students of the magick arts anxiously await the return of Alaric's mystical powers, as well as the end of the land's deadly slide toward chaos. But even they are unaware of the underlying tragedy which prepares to strike the land.

Your arrival in Cythera begins an immersive adventure that is sure to cause incidents of philosophical self-questioning and adrenaline-pumping suspense. Intriguing puzzles offer clues about the island's mythical history, and ultimately the origins of the people of Cythera.

Glenn Andreas' imagination and love for classical mythology breathe life into the fictional world, and his work on the underlying Delver engine adds realism and ingenuity to what is surely the most advanced RPG in the Mac market. One strength of the engine involves interaction of inanimate objects in the game; as an example, water and flour yield dough, which, when baked, makes bread.

The people of Cythera are counting on you. Don't let the evil forces destroy their lives. Show yourself as the legendary hero(ine), and end their cries for help now!
