Notes:Collect 12 zodiac signs in a nearly 400 screen large labirynth. Also cracked by 2703 (notable Italian cracker on C64), which uses an unique C16 turbo loader. The 2703 crack is unfortunately buggy, has broken graphics and will crash at the "Cubic Gate" bonus screen.

Note that the map contains several rooms that are technically part of the map, but can never be reached or seen during normal gameplay.


Gameplay
The Zodiac signs are distributed randomly in the maze in game. Finding a duplicate scores only 50 points.

The game starts with 4 enemies per screen. After visiting 6 screens (even by simply going back and forth between the first screen 6 times), this increases by two to 6 enemies. Each 6 screen visits after that, the count increases, to a maximum of 16 enemies per screen.
