Games: Dungeon Crawl by Jim Gerrie

Posted on by

Crawl1Dungeon Crawl is a 3D first person dungeon crawler for the Tandy TRS-80 MC-10 and Jim Gerrie’s new game.

Your peace-loving community is  being ravaged by the denizens of a pit fiend who has taken up residence at the bottom of a nearby dungeon. He has bewitched a range of creatures, including prior unwary adventurers. You  must search his 3 level lair and defeat him!

Inside the dungeon you’ll find more than a dozen different creatures. Some of these creatures will, once defeated, drop items that will help you advance in your quest.
