Dungeon Stalker - Original Atari 7800 Homebrew Game - New!

Everyone knows The Dungeon, the last subterranean vestige of a long collapsed and long forgotten castle. The children of your village have always loved to scare each other with songs of skeletal warriors, a thousand years dead, that stalk its silent corridors. As children become adults and traditions grow, it has become the custom for boys on the verge of manhood to prove their worth, venturing into the darkness to retrieve some small trinket. Usually it's just a few old coins picked up near the entrance, along with a hastily concocted story of bravery and derring-do.

As your seventeenth birthday approached, it was clear that it was never going to be a straightforward cash grab for you. As eldest daughter of the chieftain, you always had a lot more to prove; always the best shot, the best sword, the fastest rider and the bravest warrior. That's why you're down here; shivering, terried and pointing a loaded arrow at anything that moves. And things are moving in the darkness. At first it was just the bats, but as you venture deeper, the unmistakable sound of footsteps echoes in the gloom - bone footsteps. The children's songs were right - the dead do stalk these halls!

Welcome to Dungeon Stalker. Get ready for an exciting arcade-style adventure; fighting monsters and collecting treasure as you journey ever deeper into the Dungeon!

Your task is collect treasure and fight enemies until you earn enough points to move to the next dungeon level and destroy its evil wizard. Your opponents are tough and intelligent and will do all they can to stop you. You will encounter a variety of creatures and obstacles along the way, including spiders, bats, snakes, skeleton warriors, and even demon bats! And, finally, when you have earned enough points to move to the next level, you must face the wizard! He has the ability to warp anywhere in the dungeon at a moment's notice and moves much faster than the other enemies in the game. You must kill him to advance!

To defeat these enemies, you must use your arrows sparingly! Once you deplete your quiver, another will be placed randomly in the dungeon. Retrieve it quickly while you are defenseless! A sword will sometimes appear in the dungeon, and collecting it will give you twenty seconds of invincibility. At the beginning of the game (below 37,500 points), you can use the bunker as a safe harbor from enemies. While you traverse the dungeon, make sure to collect the treasures that appear! Gather five of them and you will be rewarded with an extra life.

Dungeon Stalker has four skill settings, so you may increase the difficulty of the game as you master the dungeon.

Good luck!

Dungeon Stalker features high score saving to an AtariVox or SaveKey. Each of the 4 skill settings available has it's own Top 5 high score table and will save your scores automatically if an AtariVox is plugged in. Dungeon Stalker also has speech support for the AtariVox speech unit. The game has over three dozen speech phrases that are used at various points throughout the game.
