Users 75/100
This dungeon crawler is one of the first ever RPGs with graphics and character progression.
You are Brian Hammerhand, having just arrived by ship in a small, nameless coastal town. After a quick brawl in the Wallowing Whale Tavern, and nearly penniless, you set out to explore the town. A boy you meet leads you to the house of Merlis the Mage. There, you learn about the legend of Apshai. Apshai is the ancient god of insects, and it is said that his priests, though very knowledgeable, meddled in dark rites. The followers of the earth god Geb drove the Apshaians away, and they eventually found a new home in an underground cave, which they relentlessly expanded over time. They built a huge temple in tribute to the god Apshai and prospered immensely in the years that followed. Then, one day, there was a great roar, the earth shook, and the temple, along with the village of the Apshaians, was utterly destroyed. They fled their home, never to return. In the years that followed, expeditions occasionally sought the riches and secrets buried in the Apshaians' underground settlement. But hardly any of those who ventured there ever returned. Can you, Brian Hammerhand, solve the mysteries of the Temple of Apshai and return safely with riches beyond imagination?
