So, here it is; the revamped beginning of Jean-Pierre's legend has finally arrived! Witness the true story behind our favorite knight's first mission!

Jump into the mythical land of Galia and have fun! Story

This is the story of a man. A man who lived in the land of Galia, long, long ago. His name was Jean-Pierre LeBlanc, and he was a knight. A knight who lost his fighting spirit after his father's untimely demise. Yes, Jean-Pierre was a knight who had ceased to fight.

One night, he found himself lost in the silent remnants of a ruined dungeon. Confused and disoriented, he wandered about, looking for a way out. This, my friends, is how it all began... Requirements

Windows XP Professional (and above) is unable to run non-32-bit programs such as this one. However, for this purpose, DOS emulators such as DOSBox exist! So, if you can't play this game natively because you have a non-backwards-compatible system such as Windows XP Professional or Windows Vista, you can use DOSBox to play it! I recommend using DOSBox v0.65, since it's guaranteed to run this game perfectly fine. Earlier versions won't work, and later versions may cause slowdowns and lag in gameplay. You can download DOSBox v0.65 here. If you are using a clean install of DOSBox, it is possible to run the game by simply dragging AZMR.EXE's icon and dropping it over DOSBox's icon! The game should then run automatically. Alternatively, you can run DOSBox first and follow the instructions provided in the program's documentation to mount a C: drive, then use DOSBox' command line to go to the folder of this game and run AZMR.EXE. You can increase the emulation speed by hitting Ctrl+F12. The current speed is shown at the top of DOSBox' windows, as "CPU Cycles". However, the higher it is, the slower everything else becomes. You'll have to experiment and see what setting your system can handle before hogging too many resources. In my case, I have the emulation speed set to 10,000. Back to top Downloads
