The Golden Figurine

The problem is that it's far too easy to get stuck in a deadly trap with no hope of getting out - just one slip and your goose is cooked. Read Review

Full Instructions
Introduction
The evil wizard Morthond has stolen the Golden Figurine, a treasure that has been in your family for centuries. Your family have all been killed trying to recover this heirloom and now there is only you, the youngest son, who must do battle with the mutant servants of the evil wizard and discover the mutant servants of the evil wizard and discover the secret hiding place of the Golden Figurine.
Playing Instructions
An arcade adventure set in the 57 rooms of the evil wizard's castle. To recover the Golden Figurine you must first collect the five keys that are scattered about the castle. Other objects must be used to enable you to discover, and take, the keys. Only one object can be carried at a time (except keys, they do not count as objects). Objects can be picked up and put down on the coloured tiles.
Your strength is dwindling all the time, and it falls even more if you come into contact with spikes, water or the wizard's mutant servants. Strength can be replenished by taking any food that you find.
You have only one life, and that ends when your strength runs out. You have been warned.
Note: To Pick Up and Drop objects requires you to be standing next to the base plate on which objects can be placed, not on top of it (as in other graphic adventures!).
