Mixed-Up Fairy Tales was a graphic adventure game made for younger players than those of its King's Quest or Space Quest series. In it, the player controls a child transported to the land of make believe by the magical dragon Bookwyrm, who needs their help unknotting the mess that's become of five famous fairy tales (the prince can't find Cinderella because her glass slipper was stolen, Jack's axe is missing so he can't chop down the beanstalk, etc.).

The game has a simplified interface different from other period Sierra games; instead of different icons to move the character, look at things, operate scenery fixtures, talk to other characters, etc., it has only a general icon to interact with the environment and another to look at the player's surroundings.
