Players assume the role of Rincewind the ‘wizard’, voiced by Eric Idle, as he engages in the exploration of the Discworld in search of the means to stop a dragon from terrorising the city of Ankh-Morpork.
In this quirky role-playing adventure inspired by Terry Pratchett's famous series of books, players are immersed in an absurd, fun and magical world where nothing is as it seems and anything can happen.
In ‘Discworld’, you embark on a journey through a flat world supported by four elephants that in turn rest in the shell of a giant star tortoise called Great A'Tuin.
The story unfolds in the colourful and chaotic Discworld universe, inhabited by a variety of eccentric characters, mythical creatures and comical situations that defy logic and reality.

This is one that I was big on wanting to play but didn't have a computer at the time so I looked at grabbing the PlayStation version. I never got it, or the Saturn version, or the sequel on PSOne because my local stores either only carried one copy (sold out immediately) or none at all (they had no faith in point and click adventures).
I became a huge fan of the genre after playing Maniac Mansion on the NES many years prior. Sadly, console gamers were often left out of the fun with this genre.
You didn't manage to play version 2 either? It is still available on the web.
I may have to find a copy of these for PC, I bet they are cheap on eBay as most older PC games are, at least the PC version of cross platform games doesn't hold value as well as the console ports.
How nice the graphic style of this type of games, I have no doubt that if I played it today I would end up catching apart these old games have that unique charm that today has been lost, I do not know if one enters more for the memory or that feeling of being a child again but they are games that convey more than what you expect.
The classic games have the charm that they were designed to entertain us while the current ones are a lot of technology but more stress.
