''Legends & Myths'' is a rather obscure PointAndClick {{Edutainment}} game, released by Opportune Press/ Fireflies in 1995.
The story centers around the disappearance of three young cyclopses, who are the children of the king and queen of the land of Cyclopia. Not only must the children be found, it must happen before they are captured by an evil witch known as Eui-noon.
The game centers around a theme of folklore and mythology from around the world. Each stage requires the players to locate an item that relates to a legend or myth that the narrator describes, in order to move on to the next stage. Depending on the difficulty level of the stage, the player may also be required to solve a puzzle relating to the tale. Notably, all of the stories and related artwork used were sent in by children from around the world, through the efforts of the [[http://paintbrushdiplomacy.org/ Paintbrush Diplomacy]] group.
