The Serf's Tale by Nigel Brooks and Said Hassan, ROB 1986

About the Story

As you play the game, you discover that there are 16 treasures to collect (and keep safely). But can you solve the ultimate riddle of the Caves and gain, perhaps, the greatest prize of all?

You set out on your quest and travel for many uneventful weeks before arriving at a lonely Waystation upon the dusty road. This marks the boundary of the wilderness. Here, you reprovision yourself using the last of your coins, staying one night to chat with the friendly landlord, and then press on across the moor. It is possible that you were overheard while discussing your map, for two rough-looking characters leave shortly after you, tracking you to a lonely spot where they rob you of everything...
