Re: Gaming Guessing Game
It should be either "Betrayal at Krondor" or "Betrayal in Antara" - based on the Feist books.
Krondor was fun, especially writing program to decipher the chest locks.  Oh, the memories. |

Re: Gaming Guessing Game
Yep, was Betrayal at Krondor. Released twice, firstly in 93 then again for free in 97 to promote Betrayal at Antara.

Re: Gaming Guessing Game
Is that Elite?
Edit: Nope, had a rethink and the graphics were WAY to good for mid 80's (never played Elite but a mate of mine always raved about it) and it did lead me to Elite 2, Star Flight, Star Control and finally... Star Control 2?

Re: Gaming Guessing Game
A couple of hints and extra screenshots, this game was graphically about as good as the commodore 64 got.
Starting out as an action/ rpg you run around fighting knights and competing in archery, arm wrestling and gambling contests, whilst you try convincing different guilds to join you. Once you have your army it switches to more of a strategy, all so you can wrest the crown back from an evil upsurper/uncle robin hood style .

Re: Gaming Guessing Game
Yep thats it, was a fairly decent game for its time. Made the attempt atleast in mixing genres. I always thought the first person sword fighting was cool, you had to move the joystick in different directions to strike and parry from different angles. Though the arm wrestling (where you had to quickly move the joystick right-left aka hyper sports) was murder on your joysticks.
