Crin's CastleCrin's Castle

The first page of an article from the May 1988 issue of ST-Log Magazine, describing a fantasy text adventure in which you are a knight set to retrieve the magical Flame Sword from the evil Crin. This ST BASIC program was written by Brad Mott, who is 17 'but has owned a 1200XL for almost four years" and who "plans to learn C very soon."

I remember typing these on a ZX-Spectrum when I was about 14 or 15. Is there another page? This isn’t the full listing.

At least they obfuscated the game text with… uh.. ROT1 encoding.
