A class of school children are on a nature study trip is the woods with their biology teacher and get a little too close to the territory of the Wicked Witch, Scylla, in Tricky Troll Woods. Scylla is busy gathering ingredients for her magic spells and potions which she is going to present at the Annual Witches Congress. Then she discovers that one of the schoolchildren has picked the last of a very rare kind of mushroom which she needs. She gets furious and turns the whole class and the teacher into stone.

A little way away, Trolleruts lies hidden, and has seen it all. But what is that? On the ground Trollerut finds something that looks like an old magic chart with mystical signs on it. Trollerut meets Spike, the Hedgehog, and together they decipher it and find it is a recipe for a magic potion - an antidote to Scylla's evil spell. Now it is up to you to help Trollerut and Spike gather all the various ingredients for the potion so the school children and their teacher can be set free.
