Inside the dark catacomb are horrible monsters
and terrible traps. But also, there are treasures of awesome worth and, more
important, opportunities for great personal glory. A party of adventurers
heroes, thieves, and magicians--dares to enter the Deathmaze in search of their
treasures. Along the way they will find magical spices and potions, booby traps
and poisons, and in every room and corridor there may lurk orcs, goblins,
werewolves, and other abominations with sword in claw and teeth bared to
challenge the party of travelers and to protect their wealth.
Deathmaze is a game for one to six players in
which each player controls the actions of one or more adventurers exploring the
depths of a horror filled catacomb in pursuit of glory and gold. Like fantasy
role playing games, Deathmaze deals with personal heroic fantasy; unlike such
games, Deathmaze requires no gamemaster, but pits the players' skills against
an un-gamemastered game system. The unique map system is built up room by room
and corridor by corridor as the players explore the maze.
