Underground Dungeon by benergize

The Underground Dungeon, once home to the evil Dragon Cult, has long been dormant. Recently though, villagers have been coming to the Duke of Wor with stories of terrors emerging from within. You, a brave adventurer, have been sent by the Duke to clear out whatever evil lies within (and you could probably scoop up some treasure while you're there). So go brave adventurer-- into the Underground Dungeon! Make your name legend!

This is a fun run. Played for an hour and found an error when trying to save. Something about a "Field" hash. I found the lantern but it did not help to see in dungeon. Could be another way to see or a bug.

I enjoyed the feel of the game. I struggle to get the same results in my game. A+ on the old school vibes.

The aesthetics give me a strong nostalgic feeling.

And I admire that you wrote it with your own code.
I did not play it enough yet to give proper review.

Good game!

A fun old-style text adventure with a nostalgic feel. Impressively, benergize created everything from absolute scratch, so expect the parser not respond in completely standardised ways.

@IFforClassroom I wrote the engine for this game myself and I wasn't aware of that shorthand. I'll add it as soon as I get a chance.

Why did you disable the standard shorthand? "i - inventory, x - examine, etc."
