The story of Wishbringer begins with the player controlling a postal clerk in the village of Festeron. Mr. Crisp asks the player to deliver an envelope to the owner of Ye Olde Magick Shoppe, but this simple task leads to a strange transformation: the village is now called Witchville and has become dark and ominous. The goal is to find the Wishbringer, a stone that grants seven wishes.
Gameplay in Wishbringer involves typing commands to navigate the character, interact with the game world, and solve puzzles. The game has an open-ended structure, allowing players to choose between a "magical" approach using the Wishbringer or a more straightforward solution.
Wishbringer is set in the Zork universe and was released for the Amiga in 1991.
