Game description
The Dungeons of Grimlor is an overhead maze/shooter game that might remind you of Gauntlet somewhat. You control an adventurer armed with a crossbow that explores gigantic mazes filled with various undead creatures and other monsters. The player collects treasure, with every 10,000 points replenishing health, and arrows for the crossbow to fight enemies. There's a plot about the dragon called Grimlor who is causing trouble and must be stopped, but it has very little bearing on the actual wanderings in the dungeon.
The game was originally sold as shareware and is split into three episodes, with the first available as shareware. Eventually, author John A. Reder released the complete trilogy as freeware.
