SPI published two of these in the early eighties, using a similar system. The games were both solo, the dungeon was built by randomly drawing counters made up of a mixture of rooms and corridors. Die rolling decided what was encountered One game had the player guide a team through the dungeon getting as much stuff as possible, the other had an objective in that the player had to destroy something (the hellgate rings a bell). Can anyone help? |

Has to be Death Maze and Citadel of Blood. DM was a boxed game; CoB was the 2nd version included in an issue of Ares magazine: link I just ran across my copy in the garage this morning while trying to clean up. You used the magic mirrors to see into the future and discover the location of the gate you needed to close. |

Looks like Death Maze was sold in 2 forms, boxed and folio:

underling / Jake B – Spot on those are the ones, it was the first issue of Ares magazine I bought, also contained reviews of some Superior star ships as I recall. I remember Death Maze being available boxed and folio, but ended up buying Citadel of BLood instead. |
