You are a young man named Engeor; after a lengthy intro, you find yourself in a prison camp not because you committed any crime but because you attended a wizardry university that fell victim to a magic-fearing new ruler's pogrom. Your first job is to escape, and ultimately you are to learn what happened and why and figure out how to stop the inexorable doom that is about to befall the land.
The Fifth Disciple is a fine synthesis of two popular computer game styles: point-and-click adventure and fantasy RPG. The game combines the two styles in a way very similar to table games where players are heroes who complete logic and story tasks as well as fight in battles with enemies. The game alternates between solving problems through objects and communication with other characters, and move-by-move battling. The player takes on the character of Engeor, and for every task solved and enemy defeated, he is given additional experience, which can be used to improve one of 25 available spells. Those can be applied in the course of the game during combat as well as in the adventure parts.
Battles are like those in turn-based console RPGs a la Final Fantasy.
Not only do you gain experience points and levels the usual way, by winning battles, but also by successfully completing puzzles in the adventure portions, sometimes even by simply picking up items.
The voice acting is surprisingly well done.
This game is fun and deserves an A.
