People – grab your wands and let the Hidden Object magic begin as you play The Magician’s Handbook 2: Blacklore!

After saving Cursed Valley and becoming a pupil of the wise Wizard in The Magician’s Handbook: Cursed Valley, our hero was looking forward to a life filled with adventure and mystery. Unfortunately the Magician’s Handbook became useless and our hero returned home to his unexciting life. Now, two years, later the Magician’s Handbook is starting to come alive again with the voice of Corrigan, the fairy helper to the wizard and he desperately needs our hero’s help!
