Your task is to find the seven parchments of Xaro, which will lead you to the treasure, hidden somewhere on Invincible Island.

Instructions are typed in using ordinary words, although the vocabulary is limited. Some of the commands are given in the instructions, which makes getting started easier.

There is a graphic representation of each location in the top third of the screen. This is drawn very quickly and complements the written description well. The lower part of the screen contains the description of the location, the commands you have typed in and the computer's replies which scroll up without affecting the graphics.

There are a considerable number of locations, drawing a map makes retracing your steps easier. Thankfully, there is a facility to record the program in mid-game. There were no problems with loading - apart from the time it took.

There are a number of problems to solve on your way to finding the parchments. Surprisingly, no hints are given within the game itself, although some clues are given in an accompanying program which must be loaded separately.
