About The Crack
PLEASE NOTE:
This crack created by Floppy Robby will only load correct on a 16k machine setup (e.g. C16, C116 or emulation with 16k of memory).

However this game will run on a machine setup above 16K if the game is loaded twice. The first time you load the game the game will crash out with a message of:

?undef`d statement error in 1541
ready.

At this point you should SOFT reset your machine and load the game in once more. The game should now run correct.

The above has been tested on a Commodore 16, Commodore 16 with 16k Ram Pack and Commodore Plus/4.

Alternatively, type POKE 56, 63 then press return, then load the game.

CATACOMBS (Anirog)
------------------

Note: Sometimes the zombie, the skeleton or the spectre appears at random.
Try to leave the room the same way you entered it. Then enter it again.
Now, the undead creature will be gone. Don't waste your spells as they are
limited.

This solution is written assuming that you chose to be Duke the warrior.
