An evil troll has hidden all the Treasures of Mark, the Dwarf King. It is your task to find the treasures. Sometimes the troll guards the treasures, so you will have to make the troll go away.

The graphics of the game show the age of the game. But although the graphics are crappy, the gameplay is good and easy to control. The game has a short intro which learns you how to navigate through the menu.
When I first played the game I didn't find it hard and found 4 treasures within five minutes, so if you're bored and don't know what to do, you might like to play this game.

Troll's Tale is an epic action -adventure game based around the life of a common troll, Hogart.
One day Hogart wakes up in an unknown location deep in the woods and must find the trail back to his humble abode, under a bridge in mushroom kingdom. After his initial come down, Hogart gathers his senses back together. Armed with a glass pipe, a dirty syringe, and four dollars, Troll's tale is a deep psychological adventure as the game player is immersed into Hogart's deep past. Uncontrollable visions of Hogart's drug abusive and combined with flashbacks of his alcoholic abusive father randomly occur during game play and burden Hogart and the game player as he attempts to get back home.
The game is very interesting in the sense that the player literally experiences the dark demons that constantly plague Hogart. Additionally, the game is an epic adventure-action challenge as the player attempts to aid Hogart's sobriety and sanity and prevent him from relapsing once again in to the deep dark world which is Hogart's every day life. While attempting to find his trail back to a healthy life of sobriety and sanity, Hogart must battle the barriers of depression, suicide, and self mutilation. Aside from the game's intense psychological factor, the game excels in its portrayals of simulated drug abuse.
Through Troll's Tale the player is able to actually experience what real life user’s experience. Apart from the story line the game play is very mediocre, with horrible graphics, limited interaction with surroundings, and extremely slow game speed, Troll's Tale is a soar on the eyes and one's mental health. The game could be improved by the inclusion of a more violent theme as violence and gore levels seem to be at a minimum.
All in all Troll's Tale is a epic psychological adventure full of surprises and arising anxieties that keep the player glued to their computer screens for days.
