This game is based on the Discworld novel series created by Terry Pratchett. You play Rincewind, a wizard with of little courage or talent in the occult.

A dragon is ravaging Ankh-Morpork, the city Rincewind the wizard lives in. The Arch Chancellor sends him to slaigh the beast and you must help him! So you wake up and take your luggage with you (which thinks it's a dog) and search for anything you can use to kill that dragon.

Talk to the people of the Discworld (a flat world on which Ankh Morpork lies), though most are useless because they're all mad. And that's exactly the funny part of the game, conversations which lead to nowhere and objects you find on your quest must often be used on such strange things that it's not even logical anymore. This game is meant for gamers who love English humour and like playing an adventure.

Gameplay:
The game is one of the most illogical graphic adventures released on PSX: Most of the puzzles have no logic at all and can even be really frustrating.

  Manufacturer's description:

Terry Pratchett's DISCWORLD is a rather unique place. The entire world is a manhole cover-type disk that covers the back of a giant that is swimming through outer space. DISCWORLD, the game, relates the tale of an apprentice wizard named Rincewind (voiced by Eric Idle of MONTY PYTHON fame). Rincewind has just been chosen by Unseen University's chancellor to take a special mission. Unfortunately, the mission is quite dangerous and requires defeating a dragon. Take control of Rincewind and use a point-and-click interface to solve puzzles and keep the dragon from destroying all of Discworld. You will be amazed by the beautiful hand-drawn animation that illustrates the story. Play DISCWORLD and see if Rincewind will survive to make a sequel.
