About this game

Castle Adventure mixes room exploration with short text commands. Kevin Bales's instructions describe a castle with 83 rooms and 13 treasures, but collecting treasure is only part of the task: you also need to find a way out. Inspect what you encounter instead of treating every room as an empty passage.

Use the cursor keys to move. Walking into a visible item picks it up, while an item described in text may require the GET command. The parser accepts many two-word commands. Monsters are also approached by moving into them, but the manual specifically warns that you need a weapon before attacking.

The game provides its own SAVE and LOAD commands followed by a filename. These belong to the original game and are separate from the browser player's save controls. Keep track of useful rooms and equipment before returning to a monster that blocks your route.
