Dark Fortress

A dual-screen two-player adventure game for the C128, published in Ahoy issue #37. This requires having both an 40 column AND an 80 column monitor connected to the same 128 machine, as well as 2 joysticks. This will allow each user to control their own character without the other user seeing.

DaHc fortress is a menu-driven text game that is placed on a massive map of ShadowThorn Mountain. The object of the game is to find the three precious treasures in the game (DIAMOND, EMERALD, PEARL) and return them to the trophy case beneath the "Adventurer's Lounge" before the other player.

The game is filled with monsters, magic, myths, and mayhem— enough to keep almost any dungeon explorer happy. There are complex puzzles to solve, creatures both friend and foe, and even an underworld beneath the Fortress.
