Description

This text adventure game (interactive fiction) was originally written by Barrie Eaton on the Amstrad back in 1992.

YOUR OBJECTIVE: Rumours have spread about an ecentric professor discovering lost treasure not from this world. A dark manor holds the secret!

This Android edition tries hard to keep the original quality of that game, but at the same time provide features available from Android.

Hyperlink assist provides smart context menus as an alternative to using the keyboard.

A graphical inventory system so that you can see and tap what you are carrying.

As such there are 2 styles of play:
1. Play the game just by tapping
2. Play with the more retro style of using the keyboard

An automap will track your location progress. Can easily view by tapping the map icon. Landscape mode will show a minature version of the automap.

Can use gestures. Use arrowheads to move north or south, and use a swipe to move east or west.

Tap on an image to 'look' at your current location.
Tap on the descriptive text to close the keyboard if open.

Speech input is available to issue commands.

Can also have the text read aloud.

Font size can also be adjusted based on small, medium or large.

Also extensively designed for the visually impaired. Have fully tested with Talkback using Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) from start to end with my eyes shut! Type "blind" in game to learn more.

If you like this game then please rate.

PRIVACY:
Analytics is used to help improve this game. This sends anonymous data about game usage and how far people have progressed to Google servers.

If you can please leave analytics turned on. I'm trying hard to avoid capturing simply words, but more thoughts and intentions.

This takes a lot of work but is worth it!

NO PERSONAL INFORMATION IS SENT.

THIS FEATURE IS ON BY DEFAULT BUT CAN BE TURNED OFF IN THE PREFERENCES SCREEN.

As such 2 permissions are needed:
1. Internet
2. AccessNetworkState

If you encounter an issue please email me first. Can do so from the main menu --> Email Developer. That way I can address the issue.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

4 ★Another lovely little adventure. Full marks to the writer for making this avery usable experience on the phone. All self contained with the mappingfeature. Can happily sit on the train or plane and play it without makingnotes, maps etc. I would urge any text adventure fans to purchase all ofthese games. Six nice adventures for the price of a Latte! Please make moresir!
5 ★Great app stable and clean interface. The story line is mysterious and twisting. challenging puzzzles
5 ★Running on Nexus 5x with Android 7.0, works well. Good game!
5 ★I love the interface, shame the game wasn't longer but still well worth the asking price.
3 ★Great to see some of the old text adventures finding their way back to our screens. This particular one is over far too quickly though, making it not very good value for money. In this case, you are just getting a feel for it, when it ends (rather abruptly). I have bought the others in the series though, as this developer should be supported for his great personal effort, without which this genre of games might just disappear forever. It's great to see them resurrected!
4 ★It would be nice if the scenes could be more descriptive. Still fun though.
5 ★Please feel free to offer comments and/or suggestions so that I can improve this game.
5 ★Great fun to experience a classic text adventure on my android!
4 ★Certainly worth a go. No software issues either
5 ★I love it
