Overview

Death Test was MicroQuest #1 in the Metagaming MicroQuests series, programmed adventures for Melee and Wizard.

The Death Tests are basic slash-n-grab adventures. There's no plot and no objective other than to get out alive with all the booty you can carry. This is a good way to get accustomed to the game and to build up characters' statistics. These games introduced the Thorsz, who re-appears in Orb Quest (MQ #8).
