Synopsis

Plot

Many cycles ago, in the kingdom of N'Dic, The gnomic wizard Zot forged his great orb of power. He soon vanished, leaving behind his vast subterranean castle filled with esurient monsters, fabulous treasures, and the incredible orb of Zot. From the time hence, many a bold youth has ventured into the wizard's castle. As of now, none has ever emerged victoriously! Beware!!

Notes

Originally published as a type-in in Recreational Computing, July-August 1980. Written for the 16K or larger Exidy Sorcerer, the accompanying article states there were versions available for TRS-80 and HP 2000 BASIC.

A port to Microsoft BASIC was produced by J.F. Stetson.

Colin Appleby ported the game to NewBrain.

The game has been unofficially ported to the Amstrad CPC by Carsten Dost (SRS).

More of a RPG than a text adventure.

Thanks for that, Chickenman... I've added the details to the entry... and it sent me down a rabbit hole for the rest of the morning exploring some other Recreational Computing stuff! :)
