As the Artful Gamer definitely knows his stuff and has already recommended we play the Sega Master System version of King's Quest I -yes, despite the painful in-game typing system apparently- I had a search around eBay, and this is the best boxed King's Quest SMS deal I could find. Seller ships worldwide. Mind you, I did expect the thing to be more expensive...

Wha- King's Quest on Master System? W...when did it happen??? Thanks Gnome, I really was totally unaware of this one!
ReplyDeleteAh, but you should have thanked dear Chris for vowing on its quality, thus prompting me to search for the thing.
ReplyDeleteBut no manual - whatever will you do?!
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess one thing to do is wait for me to get my act together and post this title to my slowly growing SMS coverage on the Preserve - I always do images of every page of the manual, which may come in handy for anything arcane that you are expected to know. If I can locate it I'll post it tomorrow.
Remember when copy protection equaled complex text strings printed on bright red paper so you couldn't xerox it?
Ah, yes, the dark days when colour photocopies were too expensive to even consider... Mind you, you'd be doing us all a huge favour too, dear Charlie!
ReplyDeleteOr the infamous code wheel or lenslok system. Ocean Software made a big thing about the Amiga version of Robocop 3 only being able to work if you plugged a hardware dongle into the parallel port. You wouldn't be able to play the game without it. Robocop 3 got cracked within about a week.
ReplyDeleteAh, the Lenslock and its notorious nastiness. The dongles were pretty fiddly too, especially for someone like me who thinks that changing DVDs is incredibly boring.
ReplyDeleteI was also unaware of this one. I'll check to see if I have the rom when I get home :P
ReplyDeleteShhhh...
ReplyDeleteYou must mean check to see if you have it in your game ro(o)m....of course!
ReplyDeleteTehehehehe... :)
