Fisraduth: Castle of Tyramis - Family Basic - longplay
4This game is a type-in title, an artistic gem. Family BASIC limits you to specific sprites: Mario, Pauline, Penguin, Fly, etc. This game somehow uses those to create everything from a shielded knight to a flame spewing tektite to a gowned lady – all 2-3x taller than normal sprites. You are usually limited to a single background in Family BASIC. Fisraduth uses darkness to hide portions of the background to give you the feeling of multiple rooms. There are even hidden, secret rooms.
You control a knight with a sword that can swing high or low, and you fight creatures that can hit you or shoot things at you. Along the way you gain a shield that can block projectiles and can increase your armor/sword strength by going into rooms (including secret rooms) to collect powerups.
