Torin's Passage

Description

Torin is a young boy who lives in a little country house with his parents and with his dog-like friend Boogle. One day he returns home, only to find out his parents were imprisoned in a magical spell. He must now travel to distant lands to free his parents from the curse, and to discover the truth about his own origin.

The game is a humorous adventure with cartoon-style graphics, mostly aimed at younger players. Torin interacts with characters and objects in a point-and-click fashion, and can also use Boogle's special ability: to change shapes and to turn itself into useful objects.
