How it begins
You are a Knight of the Round Table. Your quest is to obtain King Author's [sic] sword Excalabor [sic], which is right here in the usual Large Stone, right beside the Large Podiom [sic] and Two Golden Torches.
Notable features
- Very short and simple game.
- Lots of ways to die. A sufficiently observant adventurer can successfully avoid death, however.
- Appalling spelling errors. Here's a taste of how bad bad spelling can be:
>x podiom
A rased platform... as you look at it Merlin apears and saies "Welcome ye Knight of the Round Table. Your quest for Author's sword is almost compleated. Yet only those who possess wise mindes and truth of spirit may clame it." then he vanashes.
