The second installment in Westwood Studios’ fantasy series, Legend of Kyrandia 2: Hand of Fate puts you in the role of Zanthia, a quick-witted alchemist tasked with saving her world from slowly fading out of existence. Released for DOS in 1993, this point-and-click adventure trades standard puzzle-solving for a unique potion-mixing mechanic, requiring players to gather ingredients and brew spells to progress through its vibrant, pixel-art environments.
How to play
As a traditional point-and-click adventure, interaction is entirely mouse-driven. You use the cursor to move Zanthia, interact with the environment, and manage her inventory. The core gameplay revolves around finding a cauldron and gathering natural ingredients to brew specific potions, which act as your spells to solve puzzles.

Tips
- Ingredients are often found in the environment and may need to be prepared before brewing, such as grinding or heating them.
- Zanthia’s cauldron will empty itself if you mix the wrong ingredients together, so pay close attention to the potion recipes you discover.
- Keep your inventory organized; you will often need to carry seemingly useless items like empty flasks or random flora for a long time before their purpose becomes clear.
