I have posted an incomplete version of my game on the site. It would really help if some people were to try it and tell me their opinions and/or suggestions. Thanks!

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention this in my review, but I noticed that I had received a map in the beginning of the game, yet I am not able to look at it. It would have really helped to be able to look at a picture of a map so I didn't feel like I was wandering a maze. Also, a sense of direction would have helped the game as well, such as being able to know where to go instead of aimless wandering (I think I mentioned this in my review). Otherwise, not a bad game, but needs improvement.

Thanks for the review, Tyrant. There are a few precisions I thought were intuitive, but anyway...
If you are attacked, you can strike back by using :"use (weapon) on (enemy)". Don't be shy to kill beasts if they try to stop you to be a meal...
Note that the entire game is mouse controlled and that there are no impossible predicaments (within a few limits).
Also note that many things like getting killed by enemys, encountering beasts, using objects and a few character reactions are randomly chosen, so technically, it is not a perfectly classical text-based game.
I know the game is hard and that it is rather easy to die. I am working on it.
Castel is the old english name for castle, coming from norman conquerers, about the vocabulary; but there are mistakes.

Oh! sorry about the map; I thought I had forgotten to do a few things before releasing the demo. Thanks for the reminder, I'll get on it.

Ah, I see now (and wasn't aware of the old "castel" word). You should actually maybe include a Readme or Help file to help people out. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the final version (or updated if you do so), so make sure you let us know when that happens:-)
