Spellbound: A Dungeons & Dragons Adventure

Spellbound: A Dungeons & Dragons Adventure is a 1-player roleplaying game for the TRS-80 CoCo.

The powerful Archwizard is marshalling his forces of evil in the dungeon beneath the Town of Midgard. The forces of light are represented by Ymiro, the leader of the local temple, who strives to gather adventurers to defeat the evil.

At the beginning of each adventure, the player can access numerous locations of Midgard via the menu. The Adventurer's Guild creates new characters. The player creates a party of 6 adventurers from 5 classes: fighter, thief, wizard, priest, or paladin and 4 races: elf, human, dwarf, or gnome, and rolls for statistics. The Unicorn Tavern serves as the meeting place for these adventurers where a party can be gathered. The Library provides information and back story on the game world.

Once a party has been gathered, they can purchase equipment at Elmo's Trading Post, rest and recover at the Green Dragon Inn, purchase healing and level advancement at the Temple of Ymiro, or finally choose to enter the dungeon beneath Midgard.

Once entering the dungeon, game play occurs from a first person perspective in a wire frame maze. The player encounters parties of monsters, where the characters can use items, parry attacks, run away, cast spells, or fight if close enough to an enemy. Each enemy has distance, and can approach or run away from monsters. Experience points and gold from combat can be used to level up the characters.
