Description:	Reports of strange noises in the basement have brought you to a castle in Northern Europe. You go downstairs, gun in hand, to investigate, and now you're trapped there. It looks like someone's been busy redecorating the place, but that's ok. You have a few ideas of your own about color scheme. Time to get to work.

This is a castle/dungeon level, and like most others of its period it is dark, cramped, and not much fun to play. To his credit the author has explored the vertical, and there are a lots of spiral staircases, although they're frustrating to navigate. The final room has a certain epic quality, but the boss battle is damp, because you have lots of ammo.

I'd prefer if nobody mucked with it.  I like it the way it is.  Please
feel free to send me comments (or flames).  Like I don't already get a
hundred or more email messages a day from listservers and
co-workers. :-)
