The Touchstone

A touchstone is a test to determine the genuineness of something or of someone.

"The Touchstone" is a machine language game that runs on a 32K Radio Shack Color Computer, or any compatible hardware. Joysticks are required for play, 1 or 2 players.

You are one of many priests of Ra who has accepted the challenge of the touchstone. The challenge is a way for any of Ra's followers to become a favored high priest.

For the short time you will be in his temple, Ra will grant you limited use of his powers to help you on your challenge. As you will find, a ray of light shoots from your eyes that kills anything in you path. Also, Ra will give you a lamp filled with an elixor which when spilt, causes your enemies to freeze.

At daybreak, as you enter the temple, you hear Ra's voice reminding you of what you know so well: If you can get to the touchstone you will be highly favored. Further, he warns you that your now working powers are only temporary, and that you must be successful in the mazes to be granted more time.

You enter, ready for anything...
