Super Quest

A maze top-down dungeon crawl computer game for the Apple ][. In “Super Quest”, your objective is to penetrate the maze of Saladin and activate the fabulous Mega Crown, the one device that might restore the balance of technology and magic. The maze has more than one-thousand chambers and corridors arranged in four large sections or “levels”. Throughout the labyrinth are treasure chests containing gold, jewels, and other valuable items as well as weapons, vials of healing elixir, and a magic lamp. Some chests, however, are full of junk or even empty. Monsters guard the treasures to guarantee that only a hero of tested mettle reaches the Mega Crown.

There is only one known entrance, through an underground passage to the middle of the first level. The Mega Crown is said to reside somewhere in the fourth level. Just outside the maze is a bazaar and inside it are two hospices (the latter are maintained by maze gnomes). These are places where you may rest (do a game-save), sell treasures, and bargain with greedy merchants for weapons and other supplies.

The hero can be one of four races: Human, Hobbit, Dwarf, or Elf.
