Dragonsphere was given out on GOG for free earlier. It is a well-done adventure game in its time, one that's made neither by Sierra nor Lucasarts. The graphic animations are competitive and the story has its fair share of twists to reward progress, as you take on the role of a newly crowned king to go on a quest solo to slay an evil magician that threatens the kingdom of humans, AKA the Fair.
The fact that you start back on the same scene, in case of death, makes the game rather forgiving enough to let you try different methods, despite the trial-and-error tendencies. The puzzle in the faerie labyrinth was rather tedious and counter-intuitive, being the only thing that got me to watch the rest of the gameplay/story on YouTube. But, blessed be those who endure through puzzles like these. I can humbly recommend this old, hidden gem.
