Comment
From official (?) site:
"Ah, what blind optimism can lead to. Neophyte: The Journey Begins is the first in a series of games by Alien Software. All three games were Shareware, but just like Aethra Chronicles, the full version was never released. The game is still quite fun, and has many secrets to unlock. However, it is quite "Oldskool". Before you stand a snowball's chance in Haiti of beating an alligator, you need to be level 3 or 4. Healing items and weapons are quite expensive compared to Neophyte: The Sprit Master. To aid in your quest for money, there are several hidden treasure chests across the land. There are just a few weapons to pick from at the beginning, but they are VERY powerful.
The game is considerably LESS reliable than Neophyte: The Sprit Master, and it crashes every few minutes. The most common crash happens when you die on specific screens, but it has a simple solution-don't die. All in all, it is a noble prequel to one of the few great PC RPGs."
