DarkSpyre

DarkSpyre is a 1990 video game produced by Event Horizon Software (later known as DreamForge Intertainment) for MS-DOS.

It uses top-down graphics and randomly generated dungeons, similar to a roguelike.

The gods of War, Magic, and Intellect created the Darkspyre to find a champion to overcome the final challenge of mankind.

The player must locate the five runes of power within Darkspyre to master the tests and prevent the destruction of the world.
