Ok, I wanted to relive this game so I played it. My score was 14700 on level 3. And I even knew how to use items (such as stunning enemies, powering up via item, etc) and couldn't beat your score. Impressive. :)
It's Henry Purcell's "Rondeau from Abdelazer" or "The Moor's Revenge". Benjamin Britten's "The Young Person's Guide to The Orchestra" is the piece you're referencing which plays The Moor's Revenge for the first half minute or so.
Youtube search for "The Moors Revenge" or "The Young Persons Guide to the Orchestra" and the first result will guide you to the music you want. Cheers TheRudeNews/Meep012.
I did occasionally - I tried to keep the teleport handy for sticky situations... Otherwise, this was the first time I played it so my excuse is "I didn't know how". ;)
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've been looking/waiting for an uploaded video of this game forever. Brings back memories...one of the better Intellivision games, I might add.
this game is so great!!!!!!!!!!

The game maybe fun, but it's tedious to chase the enemies and animals.

One of the best Intellivision games, very innovative.

The music that starts 0:24 (after the flash) is from Schubert's 8th symphony. Great music, great game!

Why is the "I miss my Intellivision" song in the background?

This footage is taken from the PS2 Intellivision Lives! compilation. I've never owned the original, so may be that is why.

Okay dudes, the opening theme song is an old piece of classical music.
I heard it played at a symphony, and they didn't publish the name.
I'm at a symphony thinking "It's Thunder Castle..." What the hell is the name of that music? It's also sometimes played on the Smurfs.

I like this game but the latter levels are ridiculous.

i hate how the theme still plays while playing a game with it's own music.

You mean just after the title screen disappears? I took that to be a simulation of an adrenalin rush. ;)

When I was a kid, I played through this game at least 3 times over:
Dragons, wizards, demons,
dragons, wizards, demons,
dragons, wizards, demons
Come to think of it, I spent a lot of time playing Intellivision.

Thanks for confirming that for me - I was wondering if it looped. Like NinjaGhostScorpion below, I must get back to this. ;)

You're welcome. I never had an Intellivision, so this was my first experience of the game. It is good but scores incredibly slowly!
