Murkon’s Refuge is a first-person party-based RPG, similar to the early Wizardry games. The player takes his party through the wireframe rendered dungeons, killing monsters and looting for new equipment, return to town to rest, gain level-ups, resurrect dead party members and trade for new equipment at the store. At the beginning of the game, there are only a few character classes to choose from, but as the characters grow in abilities, more classes become available.
The game is displayed entirely in HTML, with no use of Flash or scripts, and can be “paused” at any time by returning to the menu or just closing the browser window, to continue at a later time.
