Hviezdojed – the quest for the wizard

A fairy-tale game in the streets of Revúca, played with a mobile phone in your hand. The wizard Hviezdojed has stolen all the stars from the sky – and it is up to you to rescue them. Along the way you visit six iron statues inspired by the fairy tales of Pavol Dobšinský and the science fiction of Gustáv Reuss, collect talismans and defeat the wizard at the end. A gift awaits children for completing the whole game.
