Sword of Sheol

Sword of Sheol is a 1-player fantasy-themed arcade game for the Apple II.

Played from a 3rd person perspective directly behind the player, the player can move along all 4 sides of a square tunnel, and fire directly forwards. The player rapidly moves through each tunnel, as enemies and power-ups appear along the edge of the screen. Enemies fire towards the player, and must be shot and destroyed. The player can take a limited number of hits before being destroyed. Bonus items can be retrieved to heal the player, or increase the armor or weapon power of the player. Items can be shot and destroyed by the unwary. A text display on the bottom of the screen shows the players actions. After completing each short tunnel, the player moves to a new challenge. The player can start on level 00, 10, 20, 30, or 40.
