Dungeon Master 2 - Legend of Skulldeep
Info:
This is as close as possible to the original Dungeon Master 2. I wasn't able to recreate some puzzles, but they are mostly replaced with my own versions. I didn't have maps for the cellars and caves so I have made them as I remembered (not well). Also items are mostly from memory.
The outside area is mapped closely, but it is not entirely accurate. I had to make some areas smaller and if you try to map it on paper, well, good luck. Some areas won't mach properly. Skulkeep itself is nearly 1:1. I had to fiddle a bit with stairs and such.
Shops work very different from DM2. When you enter you'll see the shop guard (stone golem in The Town, knights in the village) and a coin slot. Put a gold coin in slot and door opens. You can then browse the shop. To buy simply step into the same square as the item. You'll figure it out. (Oh, yes. The shop in the second village needs a blue gem).
The Town, clockwise: your house, the teleport room, armor shop, tavern, and weapon shop.
The 2nd Village: Tavern and equipment shop.
The Armorer sells a full plate set (two pieces per purchase), chain set and two full sets of clothes (elven and wizard). Tavern sells torches and food (and water). Weapon Shop has Axe, Sword, Mace of Order, Crossbow (& arrows). Put a coin in second slot and you can buy delta and diamond edge. The equipment shop has The Inquisitor, The Hardcleave and full Armor of Lyf on sale for one blue gem a piece.
You use the Mirror of Dawn to teleport at some tech eyes. Stairs work as usual. Ladders are substitued with teleporters. If wall behind the teleporter is marked with a dent then the teleporter is ladder. Upper dent means up and lower means down.
Ok, thats about it. If there's still something, I'm sure you'll figure it out :-)
Have fun!

The incredibly game Masque+ is now available on the site! It was very hard to find, and not so easy to crack and fix, but we are very proud to present it. Here is the complete story about this game:
Some years ago most of our members were looking for rare games in old magazine issues (Fred_R, cb, myself,...). Some advertising and reviews were published about Masque+, but the game was unfindable. Also the author himself said to Florent Coste (ex-webmaster of Atari French Games) that the game was ported on Atari ST after the Amstrad release. But he didn't own the disks anymore.
Two years ago, Totoch a generous donator sent a copy of the game! But the game was still hardly protected. The protection was signed by Tsunoo Rhilty, the famous hacker. He joined for a few time some french companies and coded protection for games such as Masque+, Le Manoir du Comte Frozarda, etc.
Last year Ijor improved the Pasti program in order to image the game in .STX format. But the game wasn't easy to play (it needed to wait for the end of the music of the intro, it bombed often on STE, etc.) When Klapauzius joined Atari Legend, Masque+ was one of the first games we supplied him. He managed to crack it, to fix for any TOS, he added the space-key support in the intro, and finally he added a trainer mode. Why a trainer in an adventure game? Well, try the game and you'll see ;-)
Finally Zorro2 of MJJ-Prod sent us an intro some weeks ago, and so here it is! The intro has been tested on STFM/STE machines and features a different tune for each kind of computer.
Now you just have to download the game. We send a big thank to everyone who helped in this project: Totoch, Felx, Zorro2, F.F. and of course... Klapauzius!

Dungeon Master - Data Disk 2 - The Tomb of King Hissssa
STORY :
Hello.
I'm Old Grey Lord.
Great King Hissssa is dead. After his victorious fusing of Black Chaos, he has been chosen to be the King of Viborg. But today, he has died. After this last adventure, I came away from Viborg, with my apprentice Boris, to the town of Baldor. To forget all those crazy things. Beowulf and Karybde followed us. But Hissssa stayed and became a King.
But he has died. Before losing him, he told me and his former mates to come back, and to dig the mountain a great palace for his (and our) glory. Perhaps I was stupid, but I accepted.
I digged the mountain, helped by the strength of Karybde, the skill of Boris, and the will of Beowulf.
But there has been an earthquake. King Hissssa had an old foe, King Dragon, who lived under the mountain. He invoked an earthquake. The palace was heavy and well designed. Only a rock fell from a wall. On King Hissssa's head. Now he's dead.
And King Dragon invaded us, with his army of monsters. He stole all my keys, he locked me up in the deep of the palace. He definitely mirrored my friends and some other heroes on the top of the palace.
You're the only one who could help us, Theron.
Please, free us, and defeat King Dragon.
Please...

With an intro from Paradize, Atari Legend Gives you:
- Dungeon Master Data Disk 1 "Kids Dungeon".
This is the first of data disk, Which I belive is a good start of what more to expect.
If you never played Dungeon Master before, I suggest you start with this one.
I will not tell more. Unless, Welcome to a great world of stunning, horror, clues and and action.
here.
Three dimensional gaming on an Atari machine was an altogether mediocre experience. Games like Castle Master pushed the genre to its boundaries, while other titles barely justified the use of the contemporary graphic structure. However some individuals saw the potential in a truly 3D environment, one such pioneer was Paul Woakes- creator of Mercenary.

Read the review of Mercenary 3 - The Dion CrisisThe creator of the ST was a guy named Shiraz Shivji, who was also the main engineer behind the Commodore 64.
