Publisher's Description:

In the heart of a forest in a faraway land is the entrance to a vast underground labyrinth, the treasure-house of an evil Sorcerer. During his long lifetime of wicked deeds this Sorcerer has gathered immense wealth - heaps of silver and gold and glittering jewels, and artefacts of wondrous power. The fame of the Sorcerer's treasure-house has spread far and wide, and many a thief and adventurer longs to carry off a portion of the bounty. To protect his hoard, the Sorcerer has made by his magic arts an ever-changing Cave of many tunnels and chambers, and filled it with all manner of pitfalls and fearsome creatures to beset those who venture within.

Yet many still come to the Cave to match wits and strength with the Sorcerer, and with the other bands of brigands found there. You can be one of those adventurers. You may enter the Cave alone or with a few companions. Within its twisting passages and echoing caverns you may find friends, and enemies too. You will encounter magic which may help or harm you. You will find treasure - and perhaps you will meet the Sorcerer himself.

May you have good luck. But heed this warning - many do not return from the perils of the Sorcerer's Cave!
