Synopsis

You are in a forest. Your mission is to explore your surroundings and collect any valuables you find. Your journey will take you to an old castle, full of twisting and turning corridors, horrible sorcerers, and mysterious spiders. Will you unravel all the secrets of the castle, collect all the treasure, and escape alive?
