Also known as: Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Dragon Lance: Heroes of the Lance (title screen)

Heroes of the Lance is a dungeon crawler of sorts (a port of the Atari ST original) that seems to have been very sloppily and hastily put together. Though the concept is interesting, the execution was poor.

Map Select
Hold Down on Controller 2 at the title screen, and the text "MAP No. 00" will appear with a hex map number. While still holding Down, press A to increase the map number by 0x01 or B to increase the map number by 0x10.
Map Number Display
During the game, press A on Controller 2 to display the current map number and some other variables.
Unused Music
Track 8 on the NSF is a very short, unused piece of music that seems like it was intended for the "Game Over" and/or "Bad Ending" scenes, both of which are curiously silent.
Regional Differences
