Has anyone played the NES Game Shadowgate? It is really simular to Knightmare on many levels.
Firstly it is set in a Knightmare style Castle, with all kind of scary creatures.
The puzzles are also simular to Knightmare, yuou got to pick up objects and use them (you can carry as much as you like)
There are also many traps that you can fall into too.
The game also features a simular life force type thing as in Knightmare, only instead of food, you need to keep your touch lit, and if that goes out you will die, you have to collect more touches to stay alive, also if you make one mistake, it could kill you (just like on the earlier version of Knightmare)
Shadowgate is a highly enjoyable game! ;D

Re: Shadowgate
Yes, I used to have this game for the Atari ST but I did'nt get very far at all, must have only made it 3 rooms through but I was quite young. It took me ages to get through the door at the very start!

I agree that sounds like first degree copywrite fraud to me Geust_user.

Re: Shadowgate
Well it was made in the USA roughly the same time as Knightmare, so I doubt they copied each other.

Re: Shadowgate
I've never played the original, but I tried to get through Shadowgate Classic on the Gameboy - it was enjoyable but at the same time one of the most awkward games I've ever played (had to resort to an FAQ every five minutes to get past it. But then maybe I'm just thick.) Hundreds of instant deaths as well. It reminded me of a Fighting Fantasy gamebook, really.
Far beyond the rising sun, I ride the wings of fate... prepared to go where my heart belongs - back to the past again!
