Hi Everyone. I am one of the co-writers of Excelsior I and II. Glad to see there are some fans out there! If you are interested, we just revised both games to work better on modern Windows versions, and we have a new website. Check us out at
Oh God, the memories. Awesomeness. I would never have gotten through Ironthread without a map, though; frankly, this game would hand your ass to you without a map - but what a great game it was! Great to know that I'm not the only one having played it!
One of my favorite games of all time. Played it as a child, loved it loved it loved it. Was lucky enough to stumble back across it years later, and play it over and over again.
I loved this game! Never beat that unmappable unlightable tower though. Once got all the way to the top, but didn't have the clock with me. Wouldn't have any idea what to do with it in either case....

I always wondered what the blue fire was for in the far top right of the sea.
