The Black Sanctum begins in a rugged, snow-covered mountain country. Your task is to rid the ancient monastery of evil that has taken over. Your task is compounded by the fact that the entrance to the ancient monastery is hidden and cloaked in secrecy. This graphical interactive fiction game uses standard single letter commands N,S,E,W for movement. You can also SAVE your current location on cassette for restarting later. The command parser is a standard verb-noun type (Go Door, for example).
