Summary

Magic of Scheherazade blends action and turn-based combat RPG elements. As you travel through Arabia, you'll face enemies in real-time battles using a variety of weapons. You'll also encounter foes in tactical, party-based combat scenarios. Players can select from three character classes: Fighter, Saint, and Magician. Each class features unique abilities that come into play both during combat and while exploring the game world.

Storyline

The fantasy world of The Magic of Scheherazade draws inspiration from Middle Eastern folklore found in One Thousand and One Nights. Long before the game begins, the Arabian land fell under the control of the sinister demon Goragora and his horde of followers. A sorcerer named Isfa, wielding the power of the blue star Airosche, defeated the demons and banished them beneath the earth. A short time of peace followed, but it was shattered when the wicked sorcerer Sabaron released Goragora and his demons, capturing Arabian princess Scheherazade and her family in the process.
