Games That Weren't^®

A very quick entry for a potential C64 game that wasn’t from Games Workshop.

According to an ex-employee, for The Enemy Within – the programmer who was hired to create the game for various platforms had simply copied the code from existing games and changed a few names/sprites to fit the source materials.

As some physical copies were apparently produced it was realized about the copying and the game was canned. However, the game is apparently still within the archives of Games Workshop. We are told though that the company would have no interest at all in helping see them preserved, though we’re still trying anyway.

We hope to learn more soon, but if you know any more details – please do get in touch. Details from the employee can be found under our articles section below.
