Game Description

Follow the Yellow Brick Road to a new place in this game that continues one of the most popular stories ever told! Dorothy, Scarecrow, Cowardly Lion, and Tin Man (and Toto, too!) have reached the Wizard's castle in Emerald City. In this re-imagining, to get back to Kansas, Dorothy will have to defeat the four witches roaming the Land of Oz. Fight turn-based RPG battles in a mission that may not be all that it seems. Computer support can be used to automate moves or give beginners some assistance, while vibrant visuals, color-filled environments, and music from the film's original soundtrack keep the experience magical.
