With the graphics being limited mainly to coloured text boxes, this is a very simple early role playing game. Rooms usually have a very brief description and combat consists mainly of being told there is a Vampire, Ettin (?) or something similar present and asking if you want to attack.There is a limited element of strategy in that you can listen at doors before opening them. The main feature is the status option, where you can see your score and other stats slowly increase, encouraging you to delve deeper into the game despite its simplicity.
