Synopsis

Plot

Long, long ago, a very rich and very powerful king ruled over a large kingdom. The legends say that he ruled over his people with great wisdom and care. But there are many tales to the contrary.

Rumours have spread of his evil, his cruelty towards his subjects. Some say he never died at all...

You have to enter the Castle of Rassilion picking up all the treasure on the way, dodging monsters and solving problems, and finally take the all-powerful Ring of Rassilion from the coffin. By wearing this ring, you can escape from the castle of Rassilion.

Notes

Although the plot of the game borrows some elements from the Doctor Who episode The Five Doctors (such as the immortal Rassilion (Rassilon) in his coffin in a castle (tower) guarding his ring) the actual game seems unconnected, and more typical fantasy text adventure fare.
