I thought this game is just one of those rpg dungeon crawlers with static turn rpg battles. Turns out that this game uses near real-time action, just like the Elder Scrolls series, just this time with better graphics (in a way)! Yes, the monsters are alive and kicking in real time! Fortunately, this game is considerate enough to be turn movement friendly during battles and freeze game time during inventory and journal section access. Unfortunately, there's no other world than the dungeon.

The game could get pretty tough if you don't watch your skills.

Aesthetics is pretty good, enough to ring a modding potential. But, alas, there's no way to get at the sprites. If the sprites just suck, check out the gothic organ music. It's like Castlevania, but more like Classivania, like a 1970s ~ 1980s fantasy/horror flick.

There's just this one little problem.
Running this game on a linux? It's also on a CD format. Fuck.
Well, I guess it's time to get back and spruce up on DOS. Trying to get DOS to run windowsish programs (especially, those CD based windowsish programs), hmm.

Looks like it's shit bag r us!

As far as I know, I think I have to install first before I can play everytime for some reason...
I think it's because I was using the flatpak version, plus something about CD restrictions, lol.

Here's the list of pages, blah blah blah:

EDIT (16/05/2023):
-Okay, I am back after a tiring session of learning new old, but old fun things.
-Now go take a break just like the good old days!
-DOS gaming is back, flashback!!! :cool

Yeah, I'll put up a DOSBox tutorial topic if I ever do.
