Topless Robot recently did an article on "The 7 Nerdiest Game Shows of all time", featuring the likes of The Crystal Maze, Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego, and The Adventure Game. Guess what comes top of the list? Damn straight.
I don't know about you guys, but I'm pretty sure my childhood self would have stabbed someone to get on this show. Four awe-struck kids meet up with bug-eyed dungeon master Treguard in a castle-esque TV set. One dons a vision-obscuring helmet and enters a green-screen enhanced dungeon, while the other three watch on magical CCTV and give their friend commands to guide them. The rest is too amazing to describe in words, so I'll let the clip do the talking; no wonder it ran from 1987-1994. Just keep in mind: as far as I know, there was no real prize for completing the quest, which few ever accomplished. For the true nerdling, Knightmare must be its own reward.
