/*
*/

/*Realm of Nauga*/ is an adventure game similar to /Rogue 
</wiki/Rogue_%28computer_game%29>/ and /NetHack </wiki/NetHack>/ for the 
TRS-80 Color Computer </wiki/TRS-80_Color_Computer>. It came on cassette 
</wiki/Compact_cassette> and was released in the early 1980s 
</wiki/1980s> available at Radio Shack </wiki/Radio_Shack>. As with many 
games and applications developed in that era, /Nauga/ found wide 
unlicensed distribution through computer clubs on compilation or "best 
of" cassettes created from the pooled contributions of club members. 
Sales figures and authorship information is unfortunately unavailable.


    [edit </w/index.php?title=Realm_of_Nauga&action=edit&section=1>] Object

The object of the game is to kill the Nauga, possibly a humorous 
reference to the fictional animal that Naugahyde </wiki/Pleather> comes 
from.

I laughed my butt off when I read this!!!
