I actually first tried this on the Coco 2 a few years ago, but this version is a lot nicer to look at.

I still suck at it though ๐Ÿ˜„

@retrotechtive@retrochat.online I played this a lot on Atari ST, it has a rather harrowing sound track towards the end. It's also damn difficult, especially when the ST version appears to randomise the locations of the object you need to collect.

@apzpins@mstdn.games yikes! Though now you've made me want to try the ST version, I have the 1040 set up for a Halloween thing so it's right there... ๐Ÿค”

@retrotechtive@retrochat.online We're taking part in a retro game day the local library does biannually, and in addition to a pinball machine and a late 90s PC, I'm thinking about bringing an Atari ST and frustrate the kids with this game. It took me forever to figure out the game as a kid and I tried drawing a map for it, but damn if it doesn't have seemingly endless amount of rooms!

@retrotechtive@retrochat.online I spent so many hours playing that (and getting nowhere) as a kid. I had the DOS version.
