wizards-castle 0.0.5

Wizard’s Castle

A Ruby port of a classic BASIC game, this is a text-based adventure through a randomly-generated castle full of monsters, traps, and treasure.

The original version was written by Joseph R. Power for Exidy Sorcerer BASIC and published in the July/August 1980 issue of Recreational Computing magazine. It was subsequently ported to Heath Microsoft Basic by J.F. Stetson.

This Ruby port is based on the Stetson version.

It needs no Gem dependencies to run, and should work on all 2.x versions of Ruby.

To run: Just run wizards-castle on your command line. Use --manual to see the game manual.
