Palace Of Magic
===============

Palace Of Magic
---------------
100 screens of challenging puzzles and await you in the Palace of Magic!

The prisoner of an evil wizard, you must use all your speed and cunning to find the hidden transporter, your only hope of escape from this twilight world.

You will need to venture through woodlands, the ancient church, eerie dungeons, secret passages and even the Princess's house.

Decide who you can trust and who you can't in your desperate bid for freedom.



Playing The Game
----------------
You begin in the main hall of the Palace. An energy bar is shown at the top left of the screen; death results when the energy level falls to zero. Your percentage score, a counter, the room name and co-ordinates are shown at the top of the screen. You may only carry two objects at any one time.

Keys open doors of the same type as the key. Once a door is opened, both the door and key disappear.

Objects found on coloured bases may be picked up. These include keys, treasure chests and gold bars.

Energy is maintained by collecting magical top hats; it is lost by colliding with adversaries, going through fire and spending too long underwater. Energy is gradually lost as you wander around. If you are losing energy rapidly you will be magically transported back to the point at which you entered the current room.
