Thor's Hammer
A Shareware Adventure Game
Copyright 1995 Escape Programming
An MVP Software Production
this edition courtesy PC GAMER magazine
February 1996
************************************************
FORWARD
-------
As in ages past, the shadow of a great evil falls across our
homeland. In a trial that marks the passing of an age, a champion
must once again take up the legendary Thor's Hammer to quell the
encroaching darkness.
Soon you will find yourself gripped in an adventure of mythic
proportions. Indeed, even now a messanger prepares to ride in
search of you. I only hope that there is time yet to study
carefully the information gathered here and to arm yourself with its
knowledge. It will surely be of use to you on your quest.
Our situation is grave, young warrior, and it is in desperation that
our village turns to you. Take with you the wisdom contained in
these pages and the prayers of the dwarven people.
----------------------------------
This game is shareware. You may freely try it. If you like it or
find it useful, then you must register with MVP Software. To
"register" a shareware game means to purchase it directly from the
developer. (Shareware games are evaluation versions only, which
means you have the right to try them, but after trying them you must
either register them with the author or delete them from your
system. It is unlikely that anyone will check up on you, so
shareware works because of the honesty of users.) When you register
you will receive Thor's Hammer: Trilogy Edition, which includes all
of the following additional features:
* The complete trilogy -- all three episodes
* New graphics
* New monsters to battle
* New characters to meet
* More than nine megs of graphics, music and sound, and program files
* The complete Thor's Hammer trilogy printed manual, including the
cool hint book with tips and hints on how to get through those
tough areas.
Thor's Hammer: Trilogy Edition is just $19.95 plus shipping. So
