|
|
This port is fairly close to the original. The puzzles, items and places of
|
|
Woods's original 350-point version are exactly those here.
|
|
|
|
The scoring system is the original, except that you no longer lose 4 points
|
|
for quitting, and it awards 5 points for currently carrying a treasure (as
|
|
some early 1980s ports did). The rank names are tidied up a little. The only
|
|
significant rule change is that you cannot use magic words until their
|
|
destinations have been visited.
|
|
|
|
The dwarves are simpler in their movements, but on the other hand it adds a
|
|
few messages to make them interact better with the rest of the game. The
|
|
probabilities are the same as the original game.
|
|
|
|
The text itself is almost everywhere preserved intact, with some corrected
|
|
spelling and grammatical mistakes (and a couple of utterly misleading and
|
|
gnomic remarks).
