Castle of Doom lacks a detailed plot; the premise of the adventure is that "two kindly old ladies" maintain the circular Castle of Doom as a challenge to members of the Guild of Free Adventurers. The player is expected to explore and plunder the titular castle. The tongue-in-cheek suggestion of some inherent artificiality in the world of Eamon is in character for Donald Brown's adventures, cf. The Beginners Cave, in which a character called the Warlord is tasked with keeping the cave stocked with treasure, rats, and pirates. As Tom Zuchowski notes in his review, the "kindly old ladies" provide a rationale for the "snapshot" feature programmed by Brown. This is billed as the old ladies' willingness to preserve the castle intact as a service to adventurers while they "heal up" in the Main Hall.
