Hah, this and two other game title screens were included on the "B" side of the Melbourne Draw program tape... I wonder if that's the program they used to create them?

I totally agree mate!! It took me many hours of frustration to complete this complex adventure.When I got back to the Hobbit's house with the treasure I could only get a score of 78% if I remember correctly.

I still got this game in my collection,and watching this certainly brought back fond memories!! :D

What a sweet sound, still love Amstrad load sound better though. And speedlock was amstrad on speed.

Its now 22 years since I got hypnotised by that border light show. I swear, I'm low on brain memory. The zapping must have stored up those games into my head . when science is ready, maybe I can start playing those games in my sleep. I seem to remember being able to speed up the picture load. Experimentation with audio speed allowed a few specific octave levels resulting in higher pitch / faster load.

The errors were greater because of the limitations of tape drives.

the old LP-ROM drives were much better than casettes
