You’re Going Down! Enter the Deep Dungeons of Doom if you dare This game is only for the brave. Dungeons await, each one deeper, each one more perilous and each one more challenging than the last.

You will meet monsters and you will need skill and tactics to defeat them. You will find weird and wonderful treasures along the way. Most will help you, but some might not. You may choose to play as a Crusader, a Witch or a Mercenary – in fact each one might well be required if you are to successfully complete your quest – but knowing when to use each one is something you are going to have to figure out for yourself. The reward for your endeavours? The Deepest Dungeon of Doom. Never before has such evil existed on such a massive scale.

Only the most battle-hardened rogues will stand a chance of making an impact. Game Features:. Relive the 8-bit era with super-stylised visuals, music and SFX. Simple gameplay with a wicked learning curve.

Choose from 3 characters, each with their own unique abilities. Battle monsters in increasingly deep and difficult dungeons. Explore a world of magic, evil, power and redemption.

A throwable Macintosh Plus (or Mac II in the rerelease). It actually does tremendous damage. The 'Joke scroll' only triggers the response 'That was funny',.

Only vampires can drain it; only life potion can restore it. Wishing scrolls will grant you nearly any object in the game.
