Key Command Description Notes
 A  Attack Attempts to damage foe with "ready weapons." Must be followed by indicating the direction for the attack.
 B  Board Mount a horse or board a frigate.
 C  Cast Cast a magic spell. Must be followed by the player number (except during combat), spell type (W/C) when needed, and the spell letter. When chosen, you will be asked for the character's number (1-4) and, for some professions, whether the spell will be W/C (Wizard/Cleric). Then the rank of the spell will be requested.
 D  Descend Climb down a ladder to the next lower dungeon level.
 E  Enter Enter a town, castle, dungeon or other landmark.
 F  Fire Discharge a ship's cannons (after boarding) in direction indicated. Has a range of three squares. Any enemy killed with ship's cannon yield no treasure! Watch out, Pirate Ships fire back.
 G  Get chest Open chest. Must be followed by the number of the player who will search for traps, open the chest and acquire its contents.
 H  Hand equipment Trades equipment between two players. Followed by prompts to determine what is to be exchanged.
 I  Ignite torch Lights a given player's torch.
 J  Join gold Gives all gold in party to player indicated. Useful for buying special items or services that are expensive.
 K  Klimb Climb up a ladder in a dungeon.
 L  Look Identifies an object in a specified direction. Look is particularly useful before entering unknown places or terrain.
 M  Modify order Exchanges the positions of any two players within the party.
 N  Negate time Stops time for all outside of the party. Requires a special item. This is the trademark of a Master Thief. When the proper item is found and used, time stops around the thief for several turns. This allows an audacious thief to steal vast treasures and escape the treasure's guardians.
 O  Other command Enter any command desired during game play. Allows regular adventure verb commands in special situations or places. Such a phrase might be (Kiss) Princess, or (Jump) cliff.
 P  Peer at a gem Shows players a bird's eye view of a town, castle, dungeon level, or the outside world. One viewing per gem. With the aid of a special item, you can gain an overview of where the Party is located. On the surface, the map is of the entire world. In a town or castle, the map shows all the inside areas. When used in a dungeon, all of that level is visible. Even the ladders, doors, and special objects are shown.
 Q  Quit (and save) Use command to stop playing (from the outside world only) and save your progress to disk. You can resume the game from this point.
 R  Ready weapon Equip yourself with a specific weapon for use in combat.
 S  Steal Used to steal chests from behind store counters. Success depends on skill.
 T  Transact Use to talk to townspeople or trade with merchants.
