MAZEOFGALIOUS(6)						   Games Manual 						  MAZEOFGALIOUS(6)

NAME

       mog - Maze of Galious

SYNOPSIS

       mog

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the mog command.  This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program
       does not have a manual page.

       mazeofgalious is a is a very adictive game where you have to kill thousands of enemies, collect items in order to obtain  new  powers,  and
       defeat  some really great guys at the end of each level. You are free to go everywhere you want from the beginning of the game, you have to
       choose very carefully the order in which you visit all the rooms in the huge map if you want to keep your character to stay alive. The  map
       is  structures in a main map (called the castle), and 10 submaps (called the worlds), initially you are in the castle, and you have to find
       the keys that open the doors to go to each of the worlds.  To complete the game, you have to defeat the boss at the end of each one of  the
       10  worlds. You are free to revisit each world as often as you want, in order to see if you have missed something. To defeat all 10 beasts,
       you control two characters: Popolon and Aphrodite, and each one has special abilities, i.e. Popolon has	a  greater  ability  to  jump  and
       Aphrodite is able to dive.
