BORIS MYA SHIROV.TALKS TO A LEADER OF THE C64 ADVE N-.TURE REVIVAL AND PRESENTS A.ROUND-UP OF HIS GAMES.... WALTER POOLY IS A LONG ESTABLISHED,.MUCH RESPECTED ADVENTURE AU THOR.AND FRIEND TO ALL STRUGGLING PLAYER S.WHO NEED A HINT OR TWO. HE'S JUST.CONV ERTED HIS FIVE SPECTRUM ADVEN-.TURES TO THE C64, TO CHEERS AND.CHAMPAGNE CORKS A -POPPING.. SO WHERE DID OUR ADVENTURING SAGE.BEGIN HIS HOBBY?."IT WAS IN 1981", SAID WALTER, "WHEN I.BORROWED A TEXAS TI -99/A. I STARTED,.BUT NEVER COMPLETED, S COTT ADAMS'S.'PIRATE ADVENTURE' ON CARTR IDGE. BUT.I WASN'T DISCOURAGED. THE DRAG ON 32.WAS MY FIRST COMPUTER. I BOUGHT A. GAME CALLED 'BLACK SANCTUM' FROM.DIXONS, AND THEN SCOTT ADAMS'S.'MISSION IMPOSSI BLE', WHICH WAS LATER.CHANGED TO 'SECRET MISSION' BECAUSE.OF COPYRIGHT PROBLEMS WITH THE TV.SERIES WHICH WAS POPULAR AT THE TIME..SO..."..* DESERT ISLAND DISKS *..WALTER'S FIRST AUTHORED ADVENTURE.WAS 'DESERT ISLAND', FOLLOWED BY.'CASTLE AD VENTURE', 'MANSION QUEST'.AND 'MISSION X '.. 'THE PYRAMID' IS HIS MOST RECENT.WOR K - AS WITH THE OTHERS, PRODUCED.ON THE SPECTRUM'S 'QUILL' UTILLITY,.BUT UPGRADE D AND TIDIED FOR THE C64.. THE SUBJECT M ATTER FOR THE ADVEN-.TURES ARE QUITE VAR IED. I WONDERED.EXACTLY WHERE WALTER CHO SE HIS PLOT.LINES.. "FOR 'DESERT ISLAND' , I LIFTED THE.BASIC STORY FROM A TYPE-I N PROGRAM.PUBLISHED IN A TANDY MAGAZINE. AS FAR.AS THE OTHERS, WELL, I'VE ALWAYS .WANTED TO DO A CASTLE ADVENTURE.AND A ' SF' ADVENTURE AND SO ON.". FINALLY WHAT ABOUT THE HAVES AND.HAVENOTS OF THE ADVE NTURE WORLD..WHAT ABOUT ADVENTURE FAVES? ." 'LORDS OF TIME' MUST BE HIGH ON THE.L IST.".WHY?."BECAUSE I ENJOYED IT!".OH... RIGHTO. HOW ABOUT THE DROSS?.ANY BAD'UN S OUT THERE?." 'THE HOBBIT'. WHICH I DON 'T THINK IS.A PROPER ADVENTURE. IT WAS O NLY AS.A RESULT OF HYPE THAT IT GOT OFF. THE GROUND AT ALL. EVERYWHERE YOU .GO YO U HAVE TO CONSTANTLY WAIT FOR.SOMETHING TO HAPPEN, YOU DON'T NEED.TO VISIT HALF OF THE LOCATIONS. IT'S.ALSO BUT-RIDDEN. I HAVE SIMILAR COM-.MENTS FOR 'SHERLOCK' . ALSO 'THE.ISLAND' BY CRYSTAL AND 'WOOD S OF.WINTER' "...ON THE NEXT PAGES YOU W ILL FIND THE.REVIEWS OF THESE 5 GAMES DO NE BY.ZZAP ! SO THIS ISN'T OUR OPINION.. .* CASTLE ADVENTURE *..ONCE LOADED THE G AME OFFERS YOU A.QUICK INTRO TELLING HOW YOU MUST.RESQUE THE FAIR PRINCESS (IN T HE ORI-.GINAL SPECTRUM VERSION OF THE GA ME.YOU COULD PLAY THE GIRL RESCUING THE. PRINCE!) WHO'S STUCK IN ONE OF THE.TOWER S OF THE WHOPPING GREAT CASTLE.YOU'RE PR ESENTLY GAZING AT. AFTER.THIS IS A BRIEF TECHIE PAGE SHOWING.THE GAME COMMANDS.. THESE INCLUDE A RATHER SPEEDY RAM-.SAVE (SAVE POSITION TO MEMORY). THIS.IS EASI LY ACCESSED BY TYPING 'SAVE',.AFTER WHIC H A THREE CHOICE LINE MENU.OFFERS SAVING TO TAPE, DISK OR RAM..RETRIEVING THE RA MSAVE IS MERELY A.CASE OF TYPING LOAD AN D CHOOSING.RAM...SHORT AND STRAIGHT..IN THE GAME YOU'LL SEE THAT ALL OF.THE LOCA TIONS (PRESENTED WITH A.PLEASING WHITE-O N-BLACK TEXT SCREEN).ARE BRIEFLY DESCRIB ED WITH NO FLOW-.ERY PROSE. WALTER'S PHI LOSOPHY IS.THAT LONG TEXT SCREENS GET IN THE.WAY OF THE GAME. HE WOULD RATHER.SE E THE GAME'S PROBLEMS FLOW AND..GET THE PLAYER THINKING RATHER THAN.WASTING TIME READING LONG SCREENFULS.OF TEXT.. 'CAST LE ADVENTURE' IS FULL OF.KNIGHTS, FIREBR EATHING DRAGONS,.SWORDS, ARMOUR, HIDDEN ROOMS AND A.SMATTERING OF MAGIC. BUT RES CUING.THE PRINCESS IS NOT THE END OF THE .STORY AS YOU'RE THEN TREATED TO AN.EXTE NDED TREASURE HUNT SECTION TO.FINISH OFF .. THE GAME IS JAM-PACKED WITH PRO-.BLEM S, SOME OF THEM REAL BRAIN.SCRATCHERS, W HICH HIT YOU ONE AFTER.ANOTHER WITHOUT A BREAK. THERE ARE.NO FANCY FRILLY GIMMIC KS OR TECHIE.DEVICES - JUST PLAIN ADVENT URING FUN.WITH BAGS OF GAMEPLAY. RECOMME NDED.....-73%-..* MANSION QUEST *.. YOUR ECCENTRIC UNCLE HAS, YOU'LL BE.PLEASED TO LEARN, LEFT YOU A BOB OR.TWO BUT (THE RE'S ALWAYS A 'BUT') THE.LITTLE RASCAL H AS HIDDEN THEM AWAY.IN VARIOUS PARTS OF HIS MANSION.. THIS ADVENTURE IS IN TWO P ARTS..FIRSTLY, YOU MUST GET OFF THE TRAI N..SIMPLE ? WELL, NOT REALLY - AT LEAST. NOT IN THIS ADVENTURE! ALSO, ONCE .YOU'R E ON THE STATION'S PLATFORM YOU.COME ACR OSS A FEW SNEAKY PROBLEMS.INVOLVING A ME MBER OF BR AND.BUCKET!. ACTUALLY FINDING AND GETTING INTO.THE MANSION IS NOT EXA CTLY EASY,.NEVER MIND SEARCHING THE JOIN T FOR.THE CASH. EXPLORING THE SURROUNDIN G.AREA WILL REAP DIVIDENDS IN THIS GAME. .X MARKS THE SPOT..EVENTUALLY, WHEN YOU GET INTO THE.MANSION THE SECOND PART OF THE GAME.CLICKS INTO PLACE: THE TREASURE HUNT.. THIS ISN'T EXACTLY A NOVEL CONCE PT..IN FACT, I NORMALLY CRINGE A LITTLE. WHEN I FIND THAT, YET AGAIN, I'LL BE.OFF WITH A LARGE TESCOS PLASTIC BAG.IN SEAR CH OF TREASURE TO RE-ENACT.'COLOSSAL CAV E' ALL OVER AGAIN.. THE TROUBLE IS THAT MOST TREASURE.GAMES ARE UNIMAGINATIVE, R EPETITIVE.AND BORING. THEY, GENERALLY, R ELY ON.A SET OF CLASSIC AND RATHER STAID .BUNCH OF PUZZLES. HOWEVER, 'MANSION.QUE ST', WHICH CANNOT BE DESCRIBED AS.GROUND -BREAKING BY ANY MEANS, DOES.OFFER A SEL ECTION OF INTERESTING AND.THOUGHTFUL PUZ ZLES TO KEEP THE GAME.ABSORBING AND LIVE LY. SOLIC GAMEPLAY.WHICH WILL KEEP YOU H APPY FOR A FEW.HOURS.....-72%-...* THE P YRAMID *.. I'D SIT DOWN, IF I WERE YOU. THIS AD-.VENTURE IS (DRUM ROLL) ABOUT... A.PYRAMID!!! QUICK NURSE!

THE BEGINNING OF THE GAME SEES,.WH AT COULD HAVE BEEN, THE MOST.DIFFICULT S TART TO AN ADVENTURE.GAME, EVER. A (WAIT FOR IT) 256-LOCA-.TION MAZE! GOOD, EH? WANDER AROUND.FOR YEARS WITHOUT EVER ACT UALLY.PLAYING THE MAIN GAME. FORTUNATELY ,.OUR WALTER HAS CHARITY IN HIS HEART.AN D COMPASSION IN HIS COMMIE 'COS.THERE'S HELP TO BE FOUND. HOWEVER, I.WON'T TELL YOU HOW, WHEN AND WHERE.(HEH, HEH).. ONC E THAT'S SORTED OUT AND YOU'VE.GRABBED A SWIG OF THE LEAD-FREE.PERRY, IT'S OFF T O THE WORLD. IN FACT,.ONE OF THE QUESTIO NS YOU'LL BE ASK-.ING YOURSELF IS, 'I WO NDER HOW YOU.GET IN?'. A PYRAMID FULL OF PUZZLES IN THIS.GAME GIVES YOU ANOTHER FEW HOURS.TO WHILE AWAY. ALL LOGICAL WIT H VARY-.ING DIFFICULTY LEVELS, THE PUZZL ES ARE.WELL DESIGNED AND NEVER UNFAIR. A .GOOD GAME WITH THE USUAL PRESEN-.TATION AND UTILITIES...-76%-..* DESERT ISLAND *.. YOU BEGIN THIS GAME HAVING RUN OUT.O F FUEL. SITTING IN YOUR MOTORLAUNCH.YOU DECIDE TO JUMP TO THE SHORE OF.THE DESER T ISLAND THAT LIES ALONGSIDE.IN SEARCH O F SOME OF THE BLACK GOLD..THE ISLAND, AL THOUGH APPEARING TO BE.DESERTED, WAS USE D BY THE US NAVY.UP UNTIL 1945 SO THERE ARE PLENTY OF.OPPORTUNITIES TO FIND BITS AND PIECES.TO AID YOU IN YOUR QUEST.. I F EVER AN ADVENTURE BLEW THE FINAL.TREAS URE OUT OF ALL PROPORTION - IT'S.THIS ON E! THE AMOUNT OF WORK YOU.HAVE TO DO TO GET YOUR PRECIOUS.FUEL IS CONSIDERABLE. HOWEVER, IT'S.ALSO HIGHLY ENJOYABLE. ALT HOUGH ALL.OF WALTER'S ADVENTURES FOLLOW THIS.POLICY, 'DESERT ISLAND' EPITOMISES HIS.CONVICTION TO PRODUCE PUZZLES WITH.L OGICAL ANSWERS - A RARE COMMODITY.WITH A DVENTURES THESE DAYS (TEXT OR.GRAPHIC). EVEN THE MAZE IS LOGICAL.. AGAIN THE PRE SENTATION IS SPARSE.BUT CLEAR AND ALL OF THE INFORMATION.YOU REQUIRE IS PROVIDED ALONG WITH.THE USEFUL RAMSAVE..NO RUBBI SH..DURING PLAY IN 'DESERT ISLAND' (YOU' LL..NOTICE THIS WITH ALL THE OTHER.REVIE WED ADVENTURES) IS THE 'GARBAGE.CATCHER' , AS WALTER CALLS IT. THIS.PROGRAMMING T RICK PREVENTS THE.SCREEN BECOMING CLUTTE RED WITH TEXT.AND SCROLLING DOWN THE SCR EEN. THIS.EFFECT NORMALLY MEANS YOU ALSO LOSE.THE LOCATION DESCRIPTION. THE GAR- .BAGE COLLECTOR DOESN'T ALLOW YOU TO.MOV E FURTHER FROM THE FIRST SCREEN..IT JUST CLEARS THE RUBBISH AND RE-.PRESENTS THE LOCATION DESCRIPTION.WITH A CLEAR PAGE TO TYPE ONTO..'DESERT ISLAND' IS ONE OF THOSE GAMES.WHERE YOU PLAY, LOOK UP AND THE.CLOCK HAS MOVED ONWARDS THREE.HOURS. ...-77%-...* MISSION X *..
