The Mystery of the Syntilla Silvers

One half of Mithya shining, another half still in the dark - glide away with the Taranauts on another thrilling, 'chilling' adventure!

Mithya's eight worlds - Shyn, Lustr, Sparkl, Glo, Dazl, Shimr, Syntilla and Glytr - were plunged into darkness when the wicked Shaap Azur captured all its 32 stars. There was no hope until Zarpa, Tufan and Avala - three bright and brave Taranauts with special gifts - set out to bring back light and cheer to Mithya. At the end of four missions, the score reads 4-0 in favour of the Taranauts. Nervous and desperate, Shaap Azur's Ograzurs are in attack mode, taking the war to the enemy at impregnable Kay Laas! The attempt fails, and the Taranauts zip away to the icy world of Syntilla, but Eye-in-the-Sky has other tricks up his sleeve.
