==Gameplay== The game begins inside a maze where the player must first find a key and escape through the exit. Once outside, the player begins searching, but must be careful because outside there are several locations that connect with the labyrinth.<ref>[http://microhobby.speccy.cz/mhf/002/MH002_15.jpg Revista MicroHobby. Nº 2. pag. 15]</ref> The game also has rudimentary secondary characters, although perhaps due to programming error, it is possible to talk to them even after death.<ref>[http://www.elmundodelspectrum.com/contenido.php?id=39&d=Yenght-(1984)-Dinamic Yenght en El Mundo Del Spectrum]</ref>
==Plot== {{More plot|date=August 2019}} The player's mission is to find the fountain of youth.
==Development== The development process was both handmade and homemade - tapes were not manufactured until they had received enough orders to justify them ordering copies of the print covers and making duplicates of the cassette tapes. Originally they received a few tens of mail orders, but this later ballooned into several hundreds.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.pixfans.com/yenght-la-primera-aventura-conversacional-en-espanol/|title=Yenght, la primera aventura conversacional en español|last=Yenght|first=la primera aventura conversacional en español dice|date=2012-02-23|website=PixFans|language=es|access-date=2019-08-24}}</ref>
