 Maupiti Island is the sequel of Mortevielle Manor, both released by Lankhor. Both games were best sellers at the time and were games of the year in France. Nevertheless, best sellers of the time were still selling low volumes and Maupiti Island is nowadays pretty rare ans unknown.
-The original DOS sources of Maupiti Island have been secured recently. They are written using a mix of Pascal and assembly. The blitting part of the game shares a lot with Mortevielle Manor and the speech synthesis is not in the scope of the task, so it may not be required to reimplement this assembly code.
+Partial Pascal sources of Maupiti Island (Atari ST) have been secured recently. Some utility functions are missing, which were written using a mix of Pascal and assembly. So, the whole harcoded logic is available with most of the utility functions. Some reverse engineering may be required if the equivalent functions in Mortevielle are not working out of the box for the DOS version.
 The purpose of this task is to reimplement a Maupiti Island engine for the DOS variants of the game in at least two languages, using Mortevielle Manor and the original sources as documentation.
