About Brut@l

Ranger, Mage, Warrior and Amazon begin with an unlit torch, a worn shield and bare fists. Weapon recipes and raw letters produce five weapon families; replacing a key letter with an enchanted one adds special effects. The Field Guide reveals enemy weaknesses, important when different attackers combine their abilities. Reach the twenty-sixth floor to defeat the Guardian and claim his crown.
