Do you like to explore labyrinthine dungeons for hours ? To find heaps of treasures, items and gear ? To fall victim to a lot of vicious traps, and to die just before reaching the merchant because of some huge monster that tore you apart in a single strike ? Then Verlies was designed just for you !
Verlies is a dungeon crawler / Hack & Slash taking place in dungeons filled with deadly traps, chests and other randomly generated stuff. You will be facing enemies, searching for equipment and powerful scrolls, and meeting NPCs offering various services for a fee. All of this being randomly generated, from start to finish (spells' cost and power, enemies' strenght, gear's statistics, location of the NPC, etc ...). It's impossible to play the same game twice !
To face these traps waiting to kill you at every corner you cross and every box you open, you will have 12 "jobs" to choose from. They will allow you to build your own and unique character.
Building a balanced game (difficulty, economy, ...) was one of the main objective of the development, and was conducted with the utmost care. You will definitively have a hard time choosing between the various services offered by the NPCs (sale & purchase, maintenance of the gear, blessings, forging of new items, etc...).

I distinctively remember this game from the C64.
It was even called "Verlies", and was in written in Basic, IIRC.
Looking forward to see if this brings back some nostalgia ;)
I would make sweaks and there
WOW. HOE VEEL nederlanders zitten er wel op deze site. voeg mij toe als vriend als dat kan
Verlies is German for dungeons. :P Don't worry it fooled me too ;)
and dutch word for lose
Hehe yeah I know :P Linguistics is fun!
I have a stupid question, how do I save? Do I need to find something so I can?
Because I cannot click save, since its black out. /:
The save is possible in the presence of blue crystals, otherwise there is an autosave by mode of diffculty chosen.
1st mode: Autosave on all floors
Second mode: Autosave every 5 floors
3rd mode: Autosave every 10 floors
Fourth mode: No autosave, only the blue crystals
Thanks for the help! I was playing on the second mode.
i pushed the report button by mistake sorry
