Wiz Biz

You have been incarcerated in a dungeon by Mike, a colleague who was present at last night's do for local wizards - a booze-up at the Duck and Plunger. As usual you showed off - this time by turning someone into a pink and black spotted salamander. Too bad you picked on Mike, who doesn't have a huge sense of humour!

Your magic powers are now at a low ebb, and you have a feeling it's magic you're going to need if you hope to escape this hellhole. If only you could summon your familiar... But that's out of the question - you seem to have forgotten his name.

Eventually, of course, you will manage to escape the cavern that imprisons you, and will find yourself in the labyrinth of caves under Mike's castle, where the game proper really begins.

GACked? Yes, I think so, and with fairly ordinary but acceptable graphics, some humorous replies, and reasonable problems. I liked it - especially its price.
