Synopsis

Plot

In the days before the darkness came, when battlestars ruled the heavens...

Three He made and gave them to His daughters,
Beautiful nymphs, the goddesses of the waters.
One to bring good luck and simple feats of wonder,
Two to wash the lands and churn the waves asunder,
Three to rule the world and purge the skies with thunder.

In those times great wizards were known and their powers were beyond belief. They could take any object from thin air, and, uttering the word could disappear.

In those times men were known for their lust of gold and desire to wear fine weapons. Swords and coats of mail were fashioned that could withstand a laser blast.

But when the darkness fell, the rightful reigns were toppled. Swords and helms and heads of state went rolling across the grass. The entire fleet of battlestars was reduced to a single ship.

Notes

A game reminiscent of Dungeon (aka Zork) and Adventure. You start out on a space ship under attack and must get off and back to the planet...

Was originally found on BSD Unix and ported to the Amiga by David Ingebretsen.

This game uses left/right/ahead/behind navigation instead of compass directions. Very confusing!
