Sword of Saros

The player begins in a maze. The narrow areas are corridors and the wider areas are rooms. The player must move from room to room, avoiding the wizard and his bat, gathering treasure, items and keys. Once in a room, standing around may prove to be fatal as each one of them has a dangerous monster. Some rooms have doors with either gold or a part of the sword behind them. When the player finds the sword piece, it will transport him to the next level of the dungeon.

In the first two levels, the player will be able to see the entire maze. On the next two levels, the other parts of the mazes are revealed gradually, as they are explored. On all later levels, it's possible to see only what's directly around the player. The player loses life points whenever touched by a monster. In an encounter with the wizard, besides losing life points, an additional problem is to get through his skeletons. The player will start at the bottom of the screen and needs to make way to the top. In the final dungeon, all the rooms have only unlocked doors, however gold is need to bribe the monsters in order to search the doors for the exit.

The items in the maze and their uses are:
