TDK Mediactive offers a classic fantasy adventure with the trappings of next-generation console power in their release of Sandbox Studios' PRYZM Chapter One - The Dark Unicorn for the PlayStation 2. Inspired by the timeless stories of fantasy writers like J.R.R. Tolkien, this adventure follows a plot of mysterious legends and heroic deeds through an epic struggle between good and evil.

A dark plague looms on the horizon, a menace that threatens all the land from the peaceful Unicorn Valley to the peaks of the Troll Mountains. Two heroes form an unlikely alliance in the face of this threat. Pryzm, the mighty Unicorn, and the giant troll mage Karrack join together on a quest to rid the land of this evil that befouls it and heal its inhabitants of the damages they have suffered.

At first, Przym and Karrack seem mismatched as companions. Many Trolls actually blame the Unicorns for the evil that is now befalling the good peoples of the land. After a rocky start however, the two heroes learn to work together, each relying on the other's strengths in times of trouble and each learning to respect the distinguished character and noble passions of the other as they progress through the adventure together.

Features:
Defeat your enemies with eight different magical spells
Explore four large environments with four levels in each area
Go up against 24 different enemies and five end-level bosses
