Telengard

MS-DOS · 1985 · WOR

Also known as: Castle Telengard · テレンガード (JP)

Publisher: The Avalon Hill Game Company · Developer: The Avalon Hill Game Company · Genre: Role-Playing

Telengard is an earlier example of a "dungeon crawler" role-playing game--albeit with a top-down view - with either real time movement (DOS version) or turn-based movement and turn-based combat. Telengard is also played in real time, which means that monsters can attack even when the player's character is not moving. The player controls a single adventurer, selecting randomly-rolled sets of attributes: Strength, Intelligence, Wisdom, Constitution, Dexterity, and Charisma. The vast Telengard dungeon consists of 50 levels down and 200 by 200 rooms each level. Experience is awarded not only for defeating enemies, but also for finding treasure. When the player character gains a level, their attributes increase, and they gain the ability to cast higher-leveled spells.
