You mean this?



OK, i never did beat this game because I did get kind of bored, but that ending was quite awesome and now I will go back and have that satisfaction of beating it myself.
It is what it is and it will be what it will be!

Looking for some games, but I will prolly never find.  Sapphire, Magical Chase (US)

There is some nice art there, but dang it was long. It would have had more impact if it were edited down to half the time.

...or maybe not. I guess I have to keep in mind that the person seeing this would have just played a crapload of Dungeon Master, which is basically a video quaalude. Paint drying would seem like F1 to them.

Thank you so much!
The sequel to Splatter House should be called Circle Jerk.

+100 points for referencing quaaludes, which were mentioned all the time in the early 80's pop culture. Songs, TV shows, movies...everything was better with a quaalude.

Anyway, Dungeon Master was strangely addictive back in the day. I remember, after school, heading to the computer lab at school to play me some DM. Every day! It was sweet on the the IIgs. Seriously.

Of course, I don't know how I'd feel about it today. I haven't touched DM, let alone Theron's Quest, in years.

I played it mostly on the Amiga. Not being able to keep any gear between dungeons in the Turbo version kind of made that version sucky, although the music and ambient noises were great.

Yes! I listen to the ambient tracks all the time on my laptop and they are very nicely done. Surprisingly, IIRC, Atlas: Renaissance Voyager also has some great ambient tracks. I love these soundscapes.

Yet one more reason that I love you, Zeta: you appreciate these finer points.

Ha!
