## Description
Second entry in the episodic video game adaptation of _The Ancestral Trail_
fantasy novel periodical.
The game follows the story of Richard in his quest for the six gems that, when
brought to the Tree of Life, will restore balance in the world. After
retrieving the first gem in _La Storia Ancestrale – Capitolo 1_ , Richard
finds himself in a cursed city whose every inhabitant has been turned to
stone. He must uncover the secret of the city and continue his pursuits of the
gems.
_La Storia Ancestrale_ is a point-and-click adventure game on fixed screens
from a two-dimensional side view. Left-clicking on an object or exit causes
Richard to walk there, right-clicking will have him look at the object,
whereas left-clicking while holding the right button will perform a default
action such as pick up or talk. There is a single “use” verb for objects in
the inventory, which varies in effect depending on Richard’s location.
Occasionally, Richard will have to fight monsters in an arcade sequence with a
crossbow.
