Spectre

Spectre is a 1-player arcade game for the VIC-20.

Explore a haunted mansion to gather treasure while avoiding dangerous creatures. The player controls a small character who moves about the rooms of the mansion, and can move to higher or lower levels by using the staircases. Each move costs 1 energy unit, and moving between floors uses 100 energy units. A reenergizer found in the corner of the basement recharges the player's power. Each level has a candelabra worth £1000, and somewhere on the 4 levels is a goblet worth £5000 - 10,000. Caskets worth £500 are found randomly throughout the mansion. The player can safely leave the mansion after collection the goblet and all candelabras. Wells are found randomly throughout the 4 levels, and it's game over falling into one of these. The player loses a life if they touch a monster, and they start with 3 lives.
