About the game
Stalagbite! is a fantasy quest game. You take on the role of a Dwarf, hunting for Gold and Glory in the caverns, beset by hazards, vicious creatures and Goblins. You will strive to discover new caverns, battle for glory and challenge your fellow Dwarves for the greatest hoard of treasure! Recruited from the taverns of Alberon, YOU and your fellow Dwarves have journeyed to the Lost Mountains to quest for Gold and Glory! There, in the deepest depths of the mountains, you trespass caverns untrod for a thousand years. Armed only with your wits and your axe, you discover treasures, hazards and the vicious Stalagbite which infests the caverns. But the Goblins of the Lost Mountains are aware of your presence and have sent a hunting party after you. Will your expedition triumph and leave laden with gold, or will the caverns of the Lost Mountains become your tomb? Stalagbite is a cooperative dungeon crawler and fighting game. Players can play a single adventure or a six game campaign or play solo. —description from the publisher
