                          (c) 1987 Pirate Software



   Gadzooks, forsooth, poor Sir Dimalot has inherited his grandfather's

 ancestral home, Cramalot Hall.  Sir Dimalot has travelled there on his

 trusty steed Percy.  He has heard the the castle contains many valuables

 and riches which the good knight needs to build a castle of his own and to

 afford a trip to the latest Crusader Summer School in the Middle East.



   But alas, he has run up against a number of set-backs - Zounds!  The hall

 has fallen into a desperate state and is structurally unsound.  To compound

 the problem the building is so full of treasure, rubbish and banquet 

 supplies that piles keep falling over.  Move one wrong object and the rest

 are likely to follow - burying Diamlot underneath.  Not only that, but some

 of the piles are the only thing holding up parts of the building . . .

 they are likely to fall too.  Dimalot is worried that if a large chunk of

 masonary falls - things might get a bit heavy!



   Help Dimalot achieve his dreams by cleaning all 16 store rooms.  Choose 

 where ye want to start and keepeth looking up, for if ye should have too

 much fun ye mayeth bring ye house down.



   Have fun, if you dareth.
