Zwackery Game InformationZwackery is platform game in which you control a wizard named Zachary Thwacker. On each level, your quest is slightly different. There's typically a Dragon at the end of each level, although he can be avoided on some levels by taking the appropriate path. Your overall goal is to rescue a princess, who has been turned into a toad by the Gholum. The game uses controls identical to Discs of Tron, which makes it difficult to get the hang of right away, but once you become accustomed to the controls, you'll have a blast. There are both a trigger and a thumb button on the joystick; one swings your sword, the other raises your shield. The spinner knob controls the aim of both the sword and shield, as well as picking up items and casting spells. You begin the game with 9 lives. Each time you die, you lose a page from your "book of life". When the book has no more pages, your game is over. Extra lives are earned by killing the Gholum when he appears, and the game allows you to continue a maximum of two times. Zachary's cloak changes color as you progress through the game, as does his title. I am unaware if the game has an ending, but I don't believe so. If it does, I'd love to see someone accomplish the feat. I have not yet attained the coveted title of "Zwackmaster". Below are the colors you change to based on your score, and my high score to date.
