The Goal:
|
|||
|
|
=-=-=-=-=
|
|||
|
|
The goal is for one or two adventurers to survive the perils of the dungeon
|
|||
|
|
while collecting valuables and destroying evil creatures. Each level is
|
|||
|
|
determined by your health score, which will go up and down as you progress thru
|
|||
|
|
the levels.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Villains:
|
|||
|
|
=-=-=-=-=-=-=
|
|||
|
|
Scattered throughout the depths of the dungeon you will find Monster Generators.
|
|||
|
|
Creatures spew forth from these generators at regular intervals. Each generator
|
|||
|
|
creates a specific type of villain. There are three generator levels, creating
|
|||
|
|
monsters from merely strong to awesomely deadly. You can destroy the generators
|
|||
|
|
by shooting them or, for the tougher heroes, by pounding them into rubble or by
|
|||
|
|
using magic.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The monsters come in three levels of toughness (except death, more on him
|
|||
|
|
later). A level one ghost will take one hit to destroy, while a level three
|
|||
|
|
demon will take three hits to destroy.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Ghosts: Stay away from ghosts. They will only hit once then disappear. That
|
|||
|
|
one hit can hurt a lot, so shoot them don't run into them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Grunts: Grunts will immediately move up and attack you with their clubs. Either
|
|||
|
|
fight them hand to hand or shoot them from the distance.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Demons: Demons will shoot fire balls at you from the distance, and they will
|
|||
|
|
bite fiercely when they get in range. The fireballs are far more harmful than
|
|||
|
|
their bite. Fight them hand to hand or shoot them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Lobbers: Lobbers attack by throwing rocks over the tops of dungeon walls. They
|
|||
|
|
run away so if you intend to fight them you have to corner them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Sorcerers: Sorcerers can disappear while moving. They will attack evasively by
|
|||
|
|
flickering in and out of sight. They are immune to attack when invisible.
|
|||
|
|
Fight them hand to hand or shoot them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Death: The Dark Prince drains health from you. He will steal up to 200 points
|
|||
|
|
from you and then die. Death cannot be killed by any weapon except magic.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Dungeons:
|
|||
|
|
=-=-=-=-=
|
|||
|
|
The dungeons are filled with a variety of objects...some good some evil. You
|
|||
|
|
should collect the good ones and avoid the evil ones. Here are a few pointers
|
|||
|
|
to help you tell the difference.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Potions: Poisons grant magical powers to those who know how to use them. When a
|
|||
|
|
potion is collected and used, all the monsters on the screen will be affected by
|
|||
|
|
the proportion to the magical power of the hero wielding the potion. Some
|
|||
|
|
potions. Some potions can be activated by a shot, but the effect is not as
|
|||
|
|
great.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Special Potions: These are just like regular potions when they are shot, but if
|
|||
|
|
they are collected, they give special bonuses to the player.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Food: Plates of cold food increase both your health and your score by 100
|
|||
|
|
points.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Cider: Cider is the same as food, except it can be destroyed by a careless shot.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Poison: Looks a lot like cider, but it takes one special power and 100 points of
|
|||
|
|
health when consumed.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Keys: Score 100 points for collecting each key. Keys are used to open doors.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Treasure: Treasure chests are worth 100 points each.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Amulet: A magical device that confers invisibility for a short time.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Walls: Most walls are impenetrable, but some of the older ones can be crumbled
|
|||
|
|
by multiple shot.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Traps: Glowing floor patterns that make some walls disappear
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Transporters: These powerful devices transport you to the nearest visible
|
|||
|
|
transporter. If there are several within the same distance then one is chosen
|
|||
|
|
at random. There are ways to influence the direction of travel if you can find
|
|||
|
|
them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Exits: These labeled holes lead down to specified level. If you do nothing for
|
|||
|
|
30 seconds, then all walls will disappear, freeing all monsters. After another
|
|||
|
|
30 seconds (if you avoid and combat) the walls turn into exits.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When you use an exit, there is a chance that you will end up in a treasure room.
|
|||
|
|
Collect all the valuables you can and escape within the time limit for bonus
|
|||
|
|
points. No score will be awarded if you do not escape.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In general, players are immune to each others shots, but in some portions of the
|
|||
|
|
dungeon, they may be stunned or injured by careless fellow adventures.
