I used to have a game for PC... must have been made in the 80's. Anyway, it ran in DOS, was called "Dungeons & Dragons", and only had ASCII graphics. You simply rolled your stats randomly (for presumably a human character). It was a Shareware version of the full version, and three dungeons (Telengard was one of them) of the five available were playable.

There were creatures to kill aplenty, though the dungeons werent randomly generated, and could be mapped. There were fountains, which you could drink for a random effect, and doors you could find with four gems in them. You could try different combos of touching the gems, and if you got it wrong it would shock you and harm you. If you got it right though, you would get profane amounts of gold, and you could try over and over until it worked. The "shop" was outside of the dungeons i think.

Anyway, if anyone has a copy of this game (maybe even the full version) PLEASE let me know here. Thank you. :)

My dad used to play that on the VAX 11/785 at his office many years ago. I think one of his co-workers had it on the IBM compatible; correct me if I am wrong but did little "roads" form after the PC moves? He kept getting eaten by a Homonculus.
