The Legend of Kyrandia: Book One is a point-and-click adventure game developed by Westwood Studios and published by Virgin Games in August 1992. It was originally released for MS-DOS, then ported to Amiga, FM Towns, Mac, and PC-98. It is the first in the Legend of Kyrandia series, and focuses on players taking on the role of a young prince who must put an end to the tyrannical chaos of an evil court jester.
