Appears to require a Windows-only interpreter. No source code available.

If I'm not mistaken, the "Creative Adventure Toolkit" has been around for
years. Yep, it's MS Windows-only.

Said Windows interpreter appears in an unresizable window locked to the
top of the screen. The copyright date of "The Crystal Keepers" is 2001,
rather pushing it for "new". No seperate download is required to play the
game, even though the web page implies otherwise; the game iself is in
executable format. Must be unzipped to a directory rather near the top of
the directory structure else a filename string becomes too long and
crashes the interpreter.
