[edit] Story

The evil wizard Zahgrim has turned the good wizard Aganar to stone, removed his six eyes, and placed them in different locations across the land so they may view the destruction being reaped.

[edit] Objective

The player's objective is to find the six eyeballs scattered across the land which are needed to approach the Blind Statue. Once the eyes are placed back in the Blind Statue's empty sockets, a message will appear explaining how to end Zahgrim's rule over the land once and for all. It is achieved by entering his castle, a wicked and difficult maze of traps and monsters.

[edit] Ranks

Every 4000 points, a new rank is awarded. There are four ranks: apprentice, wizard, sorcerer, necromancer. With each rank, a new batch of monsters populates the land making even places the player has traveled before more difficult.
