Description from the packaging.
You have accomplished many great feats to earn the seat at the King's right hand. And now Arthur, King of the Britons, has named you his heir over the hated Mordred.
But forthwith, you must prove yourself worthy to hold the crown of Camelot. Arthur commands that you shall go in quest of the treasured Scroll of Truth, hidden by the great wizard, Merlin.
Your computer will display, in full color graphics, the magical world of Camelot and its mystical surroundings.
Being faithful to the Crown, you accept the royal command to retrieve the scroll. But Merlin forewarns you of mysterious places, gruesome creatures, evil forces and magical objects that will enter your quest at every turn.
Defying all perils, you will journey through an ominous forest, a supernatural castle, treacherous caves and magical cities- a few of the seven types of realms that will entice you. Some will hold necessary supplies and even treasures, but in others you will be surrounded by immeasurable evil.
Do all in your power to ward off dragons, bargain with wizards and subdue the devil himself, as more than these will try to waylay you in your quest.
But have faith, brave knight, amazing treasures will spur you on. A staff that emanates the most powerful of magic and a ring with supernatural powers, are among the wonders you will behold. Be warned of one other treasure, a magnificent ark, which will act in your favor, if, and only if, you have certain magic in your possession.
Use your powers wisely, as they will hasten your quest and safely return you to Camelot and the Crown.
