Aurum (c64) full game recovered and translated!

Posted: , last updated: by Frank Gasking

A long lost John Vanderaart game called Aurum has been found and recovered via a chance copy from a party back in the 80’s and preserved. Not only has it been preserved, but the past few months have seen a painstaking translation job done on the game before releasing it today.

A great graphic text adventure, which is well worth checking out! A huge shame it never got released, but here it is now! Enjoy!

EDIT – Dutch original now included in the downloads. Stupidly forgot to include it first time!

Single Extreme Freedom (c64) full game recovered and released

Posted: by Frank Gasking

Following on from other recent recoveries comes another title which has been fixed up by Fix, Bieno, Pugsy and Jazzcat over the past few months. This time another full game which was meant to have seen the light of day back in 1994 – but never made it only merely due to no testing being carried out.
