CASTLE OF THE SKULL LORD
(Samurai Software - Dixon's 10 Pack)


The Game
	In a battle lost in the mists of time, the necromantic Skull
Lord attacked and defeated the race of noble Dwarves. The Dwarves lost
many treasures, the most valuable of these being the "Crown of Dwarves
Kings". For many ages did they attempt to regain this artifact and for
many ages did they fail.
	Now in desperation they call upon you, noble warrior, to
attempt that which is beyond their power.
	Your quest: To regain the fabled crown and defeat the all-
powerful Skull Lord.
	The adventure is of the classic format. Simple verb-noun
combinations are expected and will usually be understood.
