How it begins

You are a citizen of the coastal town of Portcullis, which has recently been taken over by an evil sorcerer. A party of four rather arrogant professional adventurers has arrived in town hoping to dethrone him.

Author's Notes

This game was written for the 35th anniversary of Zork, and as such has a deliberate old-school feel, with a greenscreen look and a drily comic fantasy setting.
