MICROFAIR MADNESS (c) DELBERT THE HAMSTER SOFTWARE Authors: Gareth Pitchford , The Spud (Scott Denyer) ★ INFOS: ZX Spectrum text adventure, released at the 2nd UK Adventure Convention in Birmingham. Microfair Madness started lifed as a text adventure for the ZX Spectrum, released by Delbert the Hamster Software in 1991. In 1992, the Adventure Workshop produced a conversion of the game for the Amstrad CPC and PCW range of computers, running under CP/M. The Guild/Adventure Workshop version of the game is sadly not archived. This new 2019 has been built using the Spectrum 48K version of the adventure. Some text (originally cut due to memory limitations) has been restored, the parser has been tweaked in places, various bug fixes and QoL issues have been sorted, and some extra clues have been added. Being based on the 48K version of the game, the CP/M version doesn't include the extended text, puzzles, locations and extra mini-games from the Spectrum 128K version. However, the second (side of the) disk includes some bonus content... the expanded (full length adventure) version of The Quest for the Holy Snail mini-game, the 128K exclusive The Great Caravan Caper and the small, promotional half-sequel Personal Computer Whirled! ★ YEARS: 1991 , 1992 , 2019 ★ LANGUAGE: ★ GENRE: INGAME MODE 2 , AVENTURE TEXT , CPM , MULTI PART , CPM , SAVEGAME , PAW ★ LiCENCE: ??? ★ RERELEASES: THE ADVENTURE WORKSHOP (1992) , ELECTRIC STORM PRODUCTIONS (2019)
