GAMEPLAY
------------------------------------------------------

You are a fearless adventurer, braving the awful
depths of a dark and sinister dungeon for precious
treasure.

But beware! You are not alone in this foul place. You
can hear something else moving down here... and it's
getting closer... and louder!

Unfortunately, it's very difficult to see down in
this place. You can scour around you and see
everything close, but far away places are a mystery.
As you traverse the dungeon, you uncover its secrets
and learn its twisting passages.

There are a few things to help you. A bubbling potion
is here, drinking it causes the monster chasing you
to stop for a brief time, letting you catch your
breath and get out of his immediate reach.

Better still is the mystical sword, a powerful blade
that will frighten and drive the monster away from 
you, for with it you can vanquish him and explore
at your leisure... but the sword will disappear after
a short time, so move quickly to catch him!

To advance to the next level, you must collect all
the treasure chests on the dungeon level. The first
level had three, and one additional chest is needed
for each level, to a maximum of eight.

You have three lives at the start of the game.
Completing a level awards you one additional life, to
a maximum of five. Each time the monster catches you,
you reappear in a different portion of the maze,
although areas you have already traversed will remain
visible.

The game ends when your greed leads to your frightful
doom...
