A surreal first person point and click puzzle adventure game published by Psygnosis. The player is a young prince who must prove himself worthy of a throne left for him by the belated king.

Surreal and sophisticated (or at least trying to be). A little too obnoxious for my tastes.
Literally get a headache with the most abstract and difficult puzzles following the most surreal rite of passage story ever put into a video game. Or just follow the intrepid single walkthrough on the internet to get a taste of what is objectively one of the most bizarre point and click games ever devised.
"Take the fly to the Pantry and place it on the meat (bottom shelf). Pick up the maggot from the meat. Take the maggot to the Hall and place it on Olly's lips. He will blow on it to warm it up. Enter the Pond, use the maggot on the upper most fish. It may be a bit resistant but keep trying, you'll eventually get the fish. Leave the Pond and lay the fish at the edge of the water. When it has finished flopping around, pick it up and re-enter the Pond. Click it on the fish in the lower left corner. You will get an eel. Before leaving use the moon to cut a reed for later use. Use the hand/fist to open the shell, then the magnifying glass to read the paper within. Open the shell again and take the 3rd piece of paper. Burn it. You will also find after catching the eel the nature portion of the game is done. (yellow dove)" (Bonnie Collins, 1997)
