      • What do you people say if we change the games to be from 1998 and earlier?

        This gives a little more variety...
        This space is empty... or is it?

        • Nope not yet, but this clue should help...


          While in France this game had a simple name
          In the USA it wasn't the same...
          Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

              • Well, I got bored an googled it. Never heard of it, either variety.

                Doesn't look like anyone else has either. If you have played it, those clues should have been enough.

                • Spaced Cowboy,

                  The game was well known in Europe at the time (Atari ST/Amiga). I guess it was a bit too obscure stateside. Will you take the honors of naming it then?

                  • I'll give it 16 more hours since I'm on my way out and am shutting down. 1st thing in the morning unless someone else gets there first.

                    • The only thing I can think of is Hero's Quest.

                      ACK!
                      Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

                          • HANG ON!

                            Five ordeals?
                            Use your head?

                            That wouldn't be refering to using your sci-powers to solve five quests?

                            Is it Kult?????

                            My GOD! I haven't seen this game since 1990!!!

                            • Dale's got it:

                              The original version of this game was released in Europe, in 1989, as "Kult: The Temple Of Flying Saucers". In 1990, it was released in the U.S., titled "Chamber Of The Sci-Mutant Priestess".

                              --

                              Both versions were also available for the Atari ST and Amiga.

                              --

                              There is quite a big error in the EGA implementation; I'm probably not explaining it properly, but it appears that one of the colours used is accidentally 'transparent' which basically results in white and cyan pixels being scattered across the game's backgrounds. If you hadn't played the game on the Atari ST or Amiga, you might think the game was meant to look like this, but it isn't. I guess it doesn't spoil the graphics *too* much (They still look very good), but it is an annoying mistake.

                              --

                              google search on "purple graphics amiga adventure game"

                              Dale, please start an easy one, after all you are supposed to be leaving/on your honeymoon soon.
