Aztec is an
Indiana Jones-type
action game with adventure elements, featuring our hero's quest to
recover a valuable Jade Idol from a maze. Armed with only three sticks
of dynamite and a pistol, the hero must get by traps, animals (lots of
snakes and panthers), and natives, and find a way to make it out alive.
The
value of the Idol is set on the level of difficulty and declines as the
game progresses. Thus, the player is awarded with the speed of which a
successful recovery can be made. Multiple commands allow for freedom of
movement, and expand the adventuring side of the game. The animation
used several frames for each creature.
Although the game is
somewhat easy on the lower levels of difficulty, the game appears
impossible on the highest of the 8 skill levels. The creatures in the
maze increase in number and speed, and tend to want to follow you around
more. This is difficult however if you want to go to the lower level
and there's a hungry jaguar waiting for you.
You walk around
exploring boxes and "trash piles". Sometimes a box contains something
useful such as a machete, pistol, bullets, dynamite, a health potion, or
the idol. Sometimes it contains skulls or bones, or even nothing at
all.
The game features some unusual traps. You can walk into a
room and the walls start moving in on you, or the ceiling starts
dropping on your head. When you die, you have the option of restarting
using the maze you just died in. That way, all of your exploring is not
wasted.
