Troll's Tale 2023
Troll's Tale 2023 is a remake/demake of a classic Sierra On-line graphical text adventure game originally released in 1983 for the Apple II computer. This point-and-click adventure game demonstrates what is possible when pushing the design constraints of the minimalist Bitsy game engine.
Synopsis: It's been forty years since you helped Mark the Dwarf King retrieve his stolen treasure from the evil underground trolls. History repeats itself as you once again find yourself in this mysterious land of the trolls, only this time aiding a new dwarf monarch. The apple really does fall far from the tree... King Mark II's tastes are far more eccentric than that of his father's.
Hints: Use the arrow keys to move the cursor. Interact with arrows (e.g.: north, south, east, west) to navigate the game world. Inspect objects and collect treasure with the cursor. Interact with the 'M' icon at the main cavern crossroads to get a count of your current treasure. There are 16 total treasures scattered throughout the land.
This game was made entirely by Tyler Wright (art, music, coding, design), for MigJam #12 (theme: "lost and found"). Many thanks to Sierra On-line and Al Lowe for creating the original game--I am in NO way part of the original crew, only a major fan of classic adventure games and Sierra's golden age.
Also, Vaporwave will never die. ;)

Got 'em all! That was fun, and I like the graphics!
Nice work! You've survived Troll's Tale 2023... lol!
Fun game I managed to find all but 2.
Thanks for playing! Some of the treasures are quite elusive, I will admit. :)
