In the shareware version, the highest possible score is 67. In the full version the highest score is 100. Your view is Sir Marin's and you are cast in the role of a knight infiltrating the Castle Serpent Head. The window is divided in between the view window, and the command bar, which contains 3 commands. The Look command allows you to get a detailed description of anything in the view window. The Do command allows you to manipulate objects, and the Use allows you to use anything.

The help file contains an intricate history, which might contain hints to solving the problems you will face, also the history gives you a sense of continuity, and leads into planned sequels. You will learn that you are seeking to overthrow the baddie, seeking a scepter that has been fought over for a long time, and that the baddie has cast a spell around the castle such as you can't enter the castle with any weapons or shields-just your wits!

The game is like an older game, or at least it appears to be, from the graphics, and the play-but just cause something is older, doesn't mean it still isn't good-I know, trust me!
