spent many quarters on this way up in prince george in the 80's. Had I knew how rare it would be, i would have packed it out with 10 of my friends! Dim lighting and many games in the background and the odour of funk on the older kids jackets bring back fond memories!
This came out in 1979 when the arcades had mostly pins in them and hardly any video games. Pacman was still a year away, and vector game machines (Vectorbeam and Cinematronics) were just starting to hit. This was right before the golden age of video games 1981-1984. Imagine seeing this for the first time and playing it at 11-years-old. Shear magical memories.
I'm giving this five stars not just because I created the game, but because it is a stunningly beautiful video rendition of how the game was supposed to look. Good work!
@semicanadian damn! You are? Do you mean that this is .... lets say "faked" or say "not original footage"? And... what the f-word did Douglas Pratt found?

I enjoyed the variety of games from those days. Not a lot of duplication!

Any possible way to get this to be my computers screen saver? I think that would be sweet.

Thanks for posting this!
I think it's amazing how realistic the knights are in this game, considering how old it is.

This game had a certain mystique when I was a kid, and still does.
