Description

Originally released in 1984 by Comptiq, this title is a port of the Apple II real-time adventure-action game Aztec. Set within a Mexican pyramid, players must utilize a variety of equipment to overcome traps and guardians in a quest to recover the legendary Jade Idol. By blending intense action with exploration, the game provided PC users of the era with a thrilling adventure experience. It remains a precious title today, standing as a symbol of the culture of porting Western games to Japan during the early 1980s.

Story

Upon hearing whispers of the "Tomb of Quetzalcoatl" hidden in Mexico, an adventurer steps into an uncharted pyramid in search of a legendary treasure. The tomb is not easily conquered, as it is filled with deadly traps, wild beasts, and ancient Aztec guardians. Players must navigate the labyrinth using a machete, a gun, and dynamite, all while striving to secure the Jade Idol and escape back to safety.
