Re-released adventures are not common for any computer but now WoW are re-releasing many old classics as well as some interesting new releases. The Trial of Arnold Blackwood is the first of five adventure games by Nemesis. All feature the same characters and at least one or two jokes about Rochdale! In the game you join Arnold in the grounds of local eccentric Lord Erebus. Arnold has a lump on his head and cannot remember why the aforementioned Lord has summoned him. You should soon work out. what the Lord Erebus requires you and Arnie to do. You then need the right objects and you should remember that old Erebus is obsessed with tidyness. The game is written in BASIC/Machine Code and the game benefits as a result of it with tunes and effects (though not as good as the other games in the series). There are many other useful extras that you would not get with a game written with Quill, GAC etc. The game is humerous and never serious. Happing is easy as the map is built on a grid. The game is both fun, challenging and really very good. My only grumble would be that the location descriptions are rather brief. I would suggest that you purchase the disc version of this game as you will also get the other four games included which are even better! Reviewer ARAGORN played on Amstrad CPC6128 |
