The game runs in a DOS emulator: keyboard and mouse work like on an old PC, each game has its own layout (see the hints in the game). There are no on-screen buttons on a phone.
First click the game screen once: after that the keys go to the game, not the page. To scroll the page again, click outside the game window. If the game does not respond, click the game screen again.
The game runs from the Internet Archive site in their emulator; there are no game files on our servers. We show it so you can get to know it; the rights to the game belong to the rights holders. The built-in player has no volume control: if there is no sound or you need to adjust it, open the game page on Internet Archive, which has sound and full-screen buttons.

Description
Silmar is a rogue-like/hack type of RPG, with random generated dungeons, in which you as an adventurer are descending to fight monsters and find treasure. The game was first released for DOS around 1990, with later incarnations running on Windows, Linux and OS/X. The DOS version has tile-based graphics, and was split in three parts.

. The first (Dungeons of Silmar) was distributed as shareware, and the second (An Everpresent Magic) and third (The Forward Terminus) parts were made available with the purchase of the first part. The story is that the evil wizard Syrilboltus was defeated in a war with a dwarf country called Gormarundon, but left a cursed magic labyrinth of dungeons under his tower, crawling with monsters, nearby the village Silmarii, which needs to be cleansed and sealed by reaching the bottom of the dungeons. Many adventurers have tried but failed, and now you are to try your luck. You choose your character from a list of mixed characters, ranging from werewolves to baseball players (oh, the horror!), and venture forth. As is usual with these games, there is a shop in the village above where you can purchase necessities and sell any treasure you find below. You can reach the shop by using a teleport bead, so there is a quick way out if things get too hot below.
