[Found: Curse of Enchantia] Point and Click game with fishbowl

It's and old Amiga game that I saw a friend playing when I was a kid but I can't remember the name of it, I would like to find it again.

All I remember from this game is that you have to put a fishbowl on your head in order to not drown under water.

In Zak McKracken you put a fishbowl on your head so you can breathe, but not in water...

First one that sprang to mind was Zak with the fishbowl - then it came to me, of course Curse of Enchantia

Played it recently and to be fair, was not enjoyable. Strange game in a way as no real dialogue or text, so never felt invested in the story.

It might not be good and all that but it always intrigued me, I have to try it now that I finally know the name.

Good luck - the interface is terrible as well, not like a traditional point and click. Very confusing / annoying.

Shocking interface, at the time I thought I was prob too young to understand. However when I re-played it last year it was worse than I remembered! Not user-friendly one bit and most of it makes no sense at all.

Was a proper slog to play through and (in my opinion) not worth it one bit. Won't replay this at all, unlike Fate of Atlantis, Money Island, etc

Yeah this sucks, I don't think I'll bother with this game after all, I could maybe handle a bad interface if the rest of the game seems good but this got pretty frustrating fast.

Glad you agreed - watch a longplay on YouTube and be glad you didn't have to play though it!

The nostalgia is enough for me to see it through to the end (sometimes!).

yeah it's pretty frustrating, I get that the designers was trying to do something different but it's just a confusing mess.
