This adventure game is text only and of the traditional sort. It is similar to the old Infocom/Magnetic Scrolls/Level 9 type which were popular in the mid 1980`s.
It is also similar to popular 80's 8-bit text adventures created with the QUILL, PAW or GAC adventure utilities.
There are no pictures or sounds, or animations in this game. ( However there is a background music track. Music credit: Eric Matyas; soundimage.org )
This not a massively big game, more of a mini-adventure really.
It is, however, complete, fully solvable and save/load enabled. It understands the standard adventure commands. The puzzles are not too difficult. Beginners or experienced adventurers *should* have little trouble in completing the game - eventually... :)
In this game you simply have to find the burial chamber in the nearby pyramid, get the treasure, and make it out of the pyramid alive within 24 game hours.
The game was converted by catventure using the free TAB retro text adventure and interactive fiction maker for Windows. More information and download here:
