Game Classification

Godart the evil wizard has kidnapped the beautiful princess Fiscella. The valiant prince Roderic, knowing that Godart's keep is virtually impossible to infiltrate by an intruder, proposed himself as a hostage in exchange for Fiscella. Godart agreed, counting on a large ransom. Yet he forgot about young Roderic's knowledge of magic. A few spells and magical herbs, and Godart was gone for good. Now Roderic is alone in Godart's castle - and he needs to get out.

Roderic is a platform adventure game, where you have to collect items scattered throughout the castle to use them in solving puzzles elsewhere. You can carry up to 3 items at a time. With them, you can open blocked passages or avoid sudden death. There are some situations in the game which can kill you - falling chandeliers and rooms filled with deadly traps, to name a few.

The castle has three levels (1st floor, basement, roof), between which you can move with an elevator. [source:mobygames]
