Beyond Quest Bill Martens

Created in 1985, Beyond Quest is an all-text RPG game that's the most old school fun you will have with your Apple II computer. Adapted from the Quest 1 engine by Brian Reynolds, it builds on the original with a new backstory, objective, improved menus, and expansion to 90 rooms. In Beyond Quest, you are a strong warrior commissioned by King Haetha of the Lividian Kingdown. The king's daughter, the Princess Belina has been kidnapped and taken to the Syrinx Dungeons on the outskirts of the Plevin Desert. Your commission is to find her, deliver her from the evil Wizard Marcova and bring her back. During your journeys through the ancient dungeon in search of the princess, four huge sapphires and other treasures. The princess and the precious jewels are guarded by terrible Wraiths, Giants, Mummies, and other unpleasant monsters. To complete your mission, you must be very strong, brave, dextrous, and very intelligent. Prepare well, guard your supplies and use them wisely, and most of all, survive and bring the Princess home!
