If you drop the parchment just before the exit of the dungeon, you can exit and visit the still intact town as normal. Which also provides a jarring Gameplay and Story Segregation moment.Doomed Hometown: Triggered by either deliberately reading or leaving the beginning mines with the parchment found at the bottom, which when read is discovered to be the Big Bad's orders.Critical Existence Failure: You can keep fighting with a single hit point, but take another point of damage and it's game over.Covers Always Lie: The box art for the first game inexplicably features copper pterodactyls.Specifically, you are the true heir of the Castle of the Winds, your father being the last survivor of the massacre and depositing you in your small village as he lay dying, the amulet being the key both to your identity and entrance to said castle.At the end of Part One, your dead father comes before you after touching your hallucinogenic family heirloom to tell you it is up to you to unseat the higher evils.Probably a descendant of a king or something. Character Customization: You can customize your stats at the beginning of the game, but since EVERY sprite in the game is saved as a ".ico" file, and Windows-3.x-era icon editor could be used to alter or replace your sprite, allowing you to add armor, change skin color, or play as a naked person, or anything else you could possibly draw.This can be exploited in a Good Bad Bug, though. Cast from Hit Points: The player is allowed to keep casting spells after running out of mana by drawing on their own constitution, (rapidly) lowering their max HP (and turning their mana level negative) until the player suddenly dies.You can get your stuff back if you can find and kill it. Very agile and requires three fireballs' worth of damage to kill.
Bandit Mook: The Smirking Sneak Thief can steal your money or whatever's on your belt, then randomly teleport to anywhere else in the level (including hidden rooms).However, using DOSBox or Windows XP Mode, you can still enjoy this classic on modern PCs. Does not work on 64-bit versions of Windows, as it is a 16-bit application.
