"You awaken with a headache and total amnesia. You don't know where you are or even what your name is. And what is this strange power you now possess? Every time you use it, you hear a loud noise! You would like to move around and find out more, but there's a small problem. Monsters are everywhere and they're trying to kill you! Welcome to Adventure Island . . .
This game combines elements of fantasy role-playing and text adventures. Discovering your identity is the mystery you must solve. Meanwhile, you're a fighter seeking treasure, exploring caves, and doing battle with multitudes of monsters.
If you haven't played fantasy role-playing games such as Ultima and Temple of Apshai before, you should know about the relationship between experience and hit points. As you travel about in the game, you'll encounter many monsters-at which time you usually have the option of fighting or running. If you fight and vanquish an enemy, you gain experience points. However, each time the enemy strikes you, you lose hit points -which indicate how much more damage you can survive. You die when you have less than one hit point. Higher experience levels benefit you primarily by increasing your maximum hit points. A visit to the inn restores your hit points to full level." Antic Vol.3 #7 |
