I first heard about the Magic Candle series in the packaging for Bloodstone: An Epic Dwarven Tale (which is an amazing game in its own right). When I read that Bloodstone was built with the Magic Candle III engine, I started looking for this game. Back then in the 90s, I was never able to find it. Since I started finding amazing games on GOG, I've periodically looked for The Magic Candle III. I hope that at some point it will arrive and I'll be able to experience the magic that I couldn't find as a kid, and that it will propel me into the whole Magic Candle trilogy.
Played this way back when they first came out. Classic old school RPGs that would be fun to replay, or play for the first time for others who love classic games. Would love to own them forever on GOG!

Muramasa: The Demon Blade
Muramasa: The Demon BladeBased on ancient Japanese lore, Murumasa: The Demon Blade plunges players into the mystical Genroku era, ruled by the skilled shogun Tsunayoshi Tokogawa. But this culture is threatened; Tokugawa's thirst for power leads to a conflict over the enormously powerful, though cursed, Demon Blades. Used in hatred, drenched in blood, the cursed blades condemn those who use them to tragedy, madness, and untimely deaths. As chaos spreads, denizens from the netherworld breach their realm as these malevolent swords summon evil spirits -- and the Dragon and Demon Gods as well. Featuring hand-drawn 2D art reflecting the heritage and tone of the storyline, Muramasa: The Demon Blade transports players into a little known mythology, envisioned by the creators of the critically acclaimed Odin Sphere. Players take on the role of a male ninja or female kunoichi, utilizing their ninja prowess to traverse the clever side-scrolling levels that feature vertical progression as well as the traditional horizontal stage advancement.
