This is a very high quality newer Amiga dungeon crawler game inspired by classics of the genre like Dungeon Master, Eye of the Beholder, and Black Crypt. Featuring great graphics, a pretty solid soundtrack, and very polished and smooth gameplay.

Included is an add-on DLC with 10 new additional maps to explore.

Also included is a pdf scan of the manual. Be sure to read it for a better understanding of the game and lore.

How to Run:

(Using .adf floppies)

1. Using either WinUAE or FS-UAE mount all 3 disk images and start the game using an Amiga A1200 or A4000 configuration with at least 2MB of chip ram assigned.
2. Saves are handled using the Save Disk floppy so insert that disk when you plan to manage your saves.
3. If using RetroArch you will have to use the Disc Control options to swap each disk when prompted since it can only have one disk at a time inserted. The game will play fine through it as long as you use Amiga A1200 or A4000 under the Automatic start option for when loading floppies in the Core Options for PUAE. You need to have the Kickstart ROMs in your System directory otherwise they won't be able to boot.

(Using the hard drive installed version)

1. Using a Workbench setup of your own or mine simply load the game executable inside the SoS folder to play the game.
2. If using my preconfigured one: move the SoS folder and .info file into the shared PC folder (ClassicWB UAE v28\PC) and launch WinUAE.
3. Load the A4000 turbo configuration and when the desktop has booted up open the PC folder and find and open SoS to get to the executable and launch it.
4. To close out the game and exit back to Workbench when you want to quit press and hold the ESC key.

(Playing with the add-on DLC)

1. The add-on DLC only works with a hard drive installation of the game. (not loading straight from the floppy)
2. To be able to apply the DLC copy and overwrite all the files from the SoS folder from the DLC over into the SoS folder for the main game.
3. Due to how everything is overwritten it's best to keep a copy/backup of the main game and play the add-on only after you've finished the main game as a sort of extra New Game+ you can do with your characters.

Note: the hard drive installed version is the recommended method to play this game since save files are handled by a folder in it and the disks aren't needed at all. It also loads and runs much smoother and faster and has support for that DLC. There's also an editor application in that version you can use to create your own DLC sorta maps and stuff.
