About Adventure in Serenia

Adventure in Serenia is the retitled release of Sierra On-Line's early graphic adventure originally known as The Wizard and the Princess, dating to 1982. It was part of Sierra's pioneering Hi-Res Adventure line, the games that helped establish the idea of pairing typed text-adventure interaction with actual on-screen illustrations, a genuinely novel approach at the dawn of the home-computer era.

The quest sends you across a fantasy landscape, wandering deserts and mountains to rescue a princess held by an evil wizard, solving puzzles by typing commands while looking at hand-drawn, colorful scenes. By modern standards the interface is stiff and the puzzles can be obscure, but the historical weight is considerable: this is Roberta Williams and Sierra laying the groundwork for the entire graphic-adventure tradition. As an early illustrated adventure it is a fascinating window into where the genre came from.
