Synopsis
You are young in years but old enough to be sent on an extremely daunting mission. If you could see into time itself you would know that you were born in the Middle Ages, but would experience an age when the whole world was threatened by the Father of Darkness. You are the hero Art and must take from the Father of Darkness the Sword of Power which he has been using for evil purposes. In the first part you travel to Europe to learn the word which will be your passport to his homeland. In Part 2 you must face him.

The plot is delirious enough, though the game is badly designed. It is mildly amusing to see things like the WW2-era London tube with the protagonist's eyes, but the Tower Hill station (an important plot point) didn't even exist at the time: Mark Lane was in its place. Poor art and absurd puzzles don't help the case.
