He killed the king and the queen and usurped the throne, initiating a dark era of tyranny.
But one of the king's guards, Radley, took the young heir of the throne and brought him securely to Damascus, where he grows up.
Realizing he is the true prince of the Littleland dynasty, the young hero follows Radley's instructions and sets on a quest to find seven magical rainbow pieces, which alone will be able to destroy Zrool.
Niji no Silkroad is a Japanese-style RPG with first-person perspective, turn-based combat, and some less usual gameplay elements.

Trading is the only effective way of getting money in the game.
You become stronger by buying and equipping better weapons and armor.
Also, there is a thirst factor in the game.
You have to drink water regularly, or else you'll be dried to death.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks Niji no Silkroad for Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Niji no Silkroad, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Entertainment System titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
