Our next title was an arcade 3D game highlighted thanks to Sven Anlauf, but from the description in the advert in Compute Gazette, it sounded much more like a CRPG. Here is what the advert stated:
“The Adventure Situation You’ve Waited For ! WIZARDS, WARLOCKS AND WARRIORS
Outfit a party of up to six adventurers, hand chosen from the characters guild, descend into the depths of a true 3-D dungeon, matching wits with dozens of orcs, wraiths, and other adversaries you’ve learned to hate. The only difference … no more dice charts, or pleading for mercy with a ruthless dungeon master!
The first scenario is “Quest of the Dark Orb.”; use it to learn, experiment, and increase the strength of your characters. 100% machine language programming, Hi-Res graphics, character print out sheets & a book on the nature of the adventure are included.
Suggested list price: $39.95”
Sadly, although the Gridiron game managed to surface – this title is still at large. We’re unsure if it was ever released at all, or was just released in limited numbers. We are guessing that it may have been done by the same developers, so have put those as credits for now.
Can you help us recover the game?
