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.

A smaller display map of the whole level is shown in the top left of the screen. The character can control seven types of characters which can be moves in the cardinal directions. There is one king per level, who can only pick up keys. On each level, the player may have a number of queens who can use bombs, serfs who can build bridges, mirrors that reflect, lasers that shoot, archers that can fire at a distance, and knights that have a powerful attack. Before a player can build a bridge, throw a bomb, or fire an arrow, the player must pick up the appropriate items. If the player shoots their own characters they are killed; there are also hidden pits and traps which must be individually searched for. The player has limited time to complete each level.
