About this game
Chex Quest is a first-person maze adventure with zorcher weapons and slime-covered opponents. The archived configuration uses keyboard controls and disables mouse input. Its on-screen help confirms the default movement, firing, door and map commands, so start with those bindings before changing the setup.
Choose New Game from the menu and select a difficulty. Up and Down move forward and backward; Left and Right turn. Hold Alt with a direction to sidestep, or Shift to run. Ctrl uses the current zorcher and Space activates a door or switch in front of you.
Number keys select available weapons, from the bootspoon to stronger zorchers. Tab opens the map when corridors become confusing. F1 shows the full help screen, F2 opens saving and F3 opens loading. Escape returns to the game menu and Pause pauses play.
