It's not often that a computer game company inspires fervent loyalty, but in the case of MacPlay , fan reaction to their return isn't surprising since the Mac has its share of avid gamers. King Majesty is for anyone who's ever wanted to rule their own kingdom. While most fantasy games place you in the role of a hero who risks his neck for rewards, Majesty places you in the role of king of Ardania, who sends heroes off to risk their necks for rewards. Each is rated according to vital statistics like strength and intelligence, as well as the ever-important number of hit points.
Every injury costs a certain amount of hit points, and once they reach zero the character is dead.
Map of the Forsaken Land. Hindering the heroes in their exploration of Ardania are such monsters as goblins, minotaurs, giant rats, medusas, and more. While you can direct your heroes to attack the monsters and explore the landscape, the artificial intelligence in the game is advanced enough that they will fight and search on their own. They'll usually run if a fight is going against them, although some foolhardy heroes will fight to their deaths if their intelligence and the potential reward are inversely proportional to each other. Magic is in the air in Majesty.
