When the wicked power of the Warlock subjugates this land, his magic defenses will recognize all who have attained the Circle of Enchanters.
So, to a novice we speak - one yet unproven who has the heart to challenge and the skill to dare.
Sealed inside, you will find such wisdom and guidance as we can provide. Stealth, resourcefulness, and courage you must find within yourself. You are the sole hope of this land, young ENCHANTER.

There are references scattered throughout Enchanter's documentation and gameplay comparing the use of spells by mages to the use of command line interfaces by programmers, and comparing mages to hackers in general. Many of the spell names, such as FROTZ and GNUSTO, are taken from MIT hacker slang of the time; others are various pop cultural references or anagrams. For instance, the NITFOL spell allows one to speak with animals, and NITFOL is a truncated reversal of "LOFTING", after the author of the Dr. Doolittle stories. Message | Report |

Other than the BBC micro and the zxspectrum in Europe and the MSX and something else in japan they really did not have much options back then for games? I mean each infocom game that I put on here seems to be only for america? unless I just need to dig deeper as they would say in the Army. Dont knwo why! Message | Report |
