Castle of Doom is the fifth adventure in the series but the third adventure written by Eamon creator Donald Brown.
Donald Brown adds to the complexity of the programming in this latest adventure. The player may now return to the Main Hall at any time during the course of the adventure. Castle of Doom will then remember the state of the dungeon in which your character left it so that you can return to the adventure without any interruption. This is a new feature added to the wonderful world of Eamon!
Castle of Doom does not have much of a plot. The premise is that “two kindly old ladies” maintain a circular Castle of Doom as a challenge to members of the Guild of Free Adventurers. The player then is expected to fight, explore and plunder his or her way through the Castle.
The description of each room and the map of the Castle is another feature unique to Eamon games. While a couple of the adventures have had as many as 70+ locations to explore; most of the maps have been relatively straightforward. The multi-level circular structure however can be confusing to map out.
