Wishbringer was produced by as an introductory level adventure game. It takes place in the town of Festeron (which was first mentioned in the booklet "The Great Underground Empire: A History.").

The player takes the part of the local postman who is sent to deliver a letter to the proprietor of "Ye Olde Magick Shoppe" in North Festeron. When the letter is delivered, Festeron becomes Witchville, a twisted and dark version of the town. The player must find the magical stone "Wishbringiner" and stop The Evil One from taking over Festeron and the whole world.

The game came with "feelies" including a map of Festeron and the letter to the Magick Shoppe, a booklet called "The Legend of Wishbringer", a letter from the Post Master, and a now very sought after collectable, the Wishbringer stone.
