XLARN is a retro game based on an idea of Noah Morgan from the year 1986.
The game consists of a little village holding alongside the house of the player a bank, a supermarket, a second hand shop, a school and a tax office. At the supermarket the player can buy ahead all the required equipment necessary to explore the widely ramified cave systems.
The intention of the game is to find an elixir for the mortally diseased daughter of the player which can only be found in the deepest levels of the `temples of the demons`.
To prepare oneself to the perils of the `temples of the demons` it is essential to explore the `safe` cave system to gain the indispensable knowledge and skills and the necessary physical and mental power.
