Thrall
The protagonist, a young orc seeking freedom, knowledge of his heritage, and a future for the orcish clans.
How it plays
The planned game uses a third-person, side-on adventure presentation with illustrated locations and character scenes. Players guide Thrall through environments, talk with characters, collect objects, and examine or combine items to solve puzzles.
Progression is based on completing story objectives and unlocking new areas rather than combat or statistical growth. The available material indicates a single-player campaign with dialogue choices or interactions, but the exact interface, puzzle solutions, and final level structure were not officially documented.
Plan your run
Because the game was never officially released, there is no verified final walkthrough or dependable puzzle guide.
For surviving demonstrations and prototype material, examine every scene, speak with characters more than once, and keep track of objects that may be used together. Treat undocumented solutions and interface details as uncertain.

Warcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans is an unreleased graphic adventure game developed by Animation Magic for DOS and planned for publication by Blizzard Entertainment. It follows Thrall, a young orc attempting to reunite his people and restore their identity after years of captivity and persecution. The game was designed as a point-and-click adventure with hand-drawn artwork, dialogue, exploration, item use, and puzzle solving. Blizzard cancelled it in 1998 after judging the project’s quality and pacing insufficient. Although it never received an official commercial release, its premise and characters later influenced Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and became a notable part of Warcraft development history.
