When I was young, way, way back, I had a game of which I couldn't even finish the first level. Now I think I'm ready to gie it another go, but I forgot the title. The game goes as follows: It's a DOS game (doh), no fancy colors, hercules was sufficient to play. You where a guy/human stylized figure and you were in a place (possibly a pyramid or s'thing of the like) where there are lots of platforms (no scrolling though) in this single room. When you stepped on a piece of a platform, it turned white. You had to cross ALL the platforms (did I already tell you there were LOTS?) before either finishing the game or go to the next level. But ofcourse there's the obligatory trap; at a regular interval an arrow would be shot (left to right only) on the row where you stood. So it's a bit of an action/puzzle game. No other baddies, just the arrows. Enough for lots of frustrating hours.... Anyone knows what game I'm talking about and where to find it? |
Q*Bert?

Nobody? I was really fond of the game...I can build a remake, but I really want to know what would happen if I finished the level/game!

The closest I can suggest would be Pharoah's Tomb, but it didn't have the Q*Bert style gameplay. Arrows, yes. Pyramid, obviously. Crappy graphics, check.

No, I know Pharao's... , finished it too ;)
The game I'm looking for looks (almost) exactly like I drew it. No 'graphics' at all. Thank you for your reply anyway ;) |

I know exactly which game you mean. I played it too as a kid, completed lots of levels, but never got to the end. I thinks it was called 'caverns', but I'm not 100% sure. I didn't find anything online, but that's no surprise, with keywords like caverns, arrow and dos game. :wallbash:
Edit : Found it on XTC Abandonware, it's called "Caverns of Bob". Seems I wasn't far off, as the executable is actually called caverns.exe :brain: |
