Can you guess this old game from just one screenshot?
I’ll update this post with the answer at 5pm today if no one has guessed before then. Or if you do guess it before then, feel free to share your memories of a classic game.
The Intellivision? damn, I figured it was too advanced for an Atari 2600/7800 and was thinking along the lines of the C64 but couldn’t think of anything I’ve ever seen/played that resembled that.
Released in 1983 – wow, how far we have come, graphics wise, but it is amazing how game mechanics haven’t fundamentally changed to anywhere near the same extent.

It’s not the original Castle Wolfenstein is it?

Great. The ONE day I’m actually home to have a go at one of these, and it happens to be the first one I don’t know. *shakes fist at the internets*

It’s “Treasure of Tarmin” on the Atari. Good old D&D!

Actually, it might have been the Intellivision not Atari…

It’s a D&D game: Treasure of Tarmin. Had to search for that one.
