Legend says that a lord in a faraway kingdom forged a dungeon that was inaccessible. Together with the power of the Accessibility Gems (Gem of Structure, Gem of Styling, and Gem of Addition) humanity could remediate the evil within. Gather the gems to assemble the ultimate weapon and defeat the dragon hiding in the dungeon.
