Hello everyone,

I’m seeking assistance in recalling a game title. Here are some details about it:

#The gameplay involves an aerial perspective, controlling a single character.
# The game unfolds with one protagonist and the addition of new companions who join the party, expanding its size.
# The combat system is turn-based, allowing players to examine a cell layout and execute actions through movement or attack placement. Progression is achieved by looting stronger equipment to enhance the character's capabilities.
# The skills are quite unique, including a technique where the main character in shorts can summon fire pillars vertically (initially targeting 3 cells, later extending to 3x3 or larger in a forward direction).
# Another party member, rescued from a prison cell, uses sword attacks and illusions to strike enemies across wide hexagonal areas.
# The female mage adds to the roster with basic bolt spells and later develops area-of-effect attacks.

I believe we begin by attempting to rescue someone who had been abducted, initiating a chain of events leading to dungeon exploration and prison rescues. The final map before reaching a town involved a challenging battle against a powerful wizard whose devastating full-screen fireball repeatedly caused our defeat. Following this, we entered a town where we needed to acquire and administer tequila to a specific NPC, but I became unable to locate this character or navigate the map due to technical issues.

I played it during the late 1990s or early 2000s on a PC.

As I recall, the game’s title was likely spelled "Trojan" or "Drojan," although I'm uncertain if this is the actual name.

Numerous similar games exist today. It would be challenging to discern it without someone possessing complete familiarity with the game's specifics. However, it resembles *Heroes of Might and Magic* to me.
