Hello! We have recently released a game called A Dragon and the Tower.
It is a short text-based point and click adventure game. You will explore the game world, gather and use items, talk to characters, solve puzzles and do much more.
Story
You are a dragon. A real one – huge, winged, flying and even capable of magic.
For centuries you have been living on Earth. No, not among humans. Dirty and crowded cities of those creatures do not entice you. Moreover, you would have to hide your true nature from them.
Only here, in a system of caves created by your magic, you can be yourself. This place is reliably hidden from eyes of humans and their artificial aides – radars and satellites.
But the time has come for you to leave your home. The old map, that you’ve been keeping since times immemorial, is now ready to unravel it’s secrets to you!
The game is available for Windows XP or later and GNU/Linux. You may also be able to run it on other platforms where INSTEAD 3.5.1 or newer is available (you can follow instructions on download page on our website).
Your game has really nice graphics. I had to activate the “Executable” permission on my Linux system. but this is well known from other games, so no problem.
chmod +x A_Dragon…
The music fits well into medieval/fantasy setting.
I was a bit lost first, about what to do and where to go, but the walkthrough helped to make my first steps.
Thanks for producing this, especially for free.
Edit: I noticed your forum avatar and I like it: A dragon reading a magic book.
We cannot really do anything about the need to make the file executable (we can pack it inside an archive to preserve executable flag, but this will still be an extra action to unpack).
I’m really glad that you like the music – this is my first attempt at writing a soundtrack for a game.
The avatar was also made by Sabra Naikomy, the artist for the game and my faithful friend and colleague.
