The Magician’s Handbook II: Blacklore is the exciting and fun Mac hidden object sequel to The Cursed Valley. In the first game you were the hero who with the help of the wise wizard found magic rune stones to remove the curse from the valley. However, since that happy day, life has been rather gloomy and unhappy for you. All traces of the glory days are gone, and the magic faded from the pages of the handbook. No one at home believed your wild stories, and the book was left abandoned. Maybe this was all a dream and you did not save the cursed valley?
After 2 years of mundane living, strange noises came out of the handbook. Corrigan, a fairy helper to the wise wizard tells you that the evil 
magician pirate Blacklore captured the beloved wizard and trapped all the fairies in the process. This wicked sorcerer is using the good magic for evil purposes. You job is to find and free the fairies hidden in the land before the next moonrise when Blacklore will come searching for you.
The play is to find enough enchanted objects to cast spells in order for you to conquer Blacklore. Use the map to visit different areas of the land. Any help you will need you click on the menu button on the right of the screen and choose the help option. The handbook is there
for each chapter’s goals. At the end of each chapter you will be graded. If you should skip a puzzle, your grade will be lowered. There are hidden keys to open treasure chests and unlock magical power-ups as well as wands with special powers. The 1st spell is the power of wind. It will blow anything covering objects you may need. Another one is fire, and it will melt snow to uncover items.
The hidden object play is enjoyable to do with it’s many scenes and interesting objects. The story is intriguing and engaging for the player. The tale will draw you in to help the fairies and your wise wizard. Defeating Blacklore is only half the fun. There are many puzzles with great artwork. I had a pleasant time playing The Magician’s Handbook II: Blacklore with over 1000 hidden objects, treasures to open and story to unveil.
