What is this computer game?

Post by stickymango »

From what I remember, this was a children's-young adult computer game around 1995 (graphics similar to Kings Quest VII and/or Blazing Dragons), interactive. Set in medieval times and it was located in a castle.

Some of the things you could do were:
- Jousting on a horse. You directed your person's spear by moving your mouse. I could never get the hang of it because the spear was always moving.. 2-D your man went from left to right and then you jousted with a dark knight.
- A dungeon maze. In the maze was a spider web that you could get rid of my using a flame torch, a weird blue cow that gave you weird blue milk, a boot with a foot inside (but you didn't actually see the foot) etc...
- A potion making thing with a magician. Don't remember too much about this.
- I think you could go in the town and do something with hay and food. Either make it, sell it, or maybe this is from another game.

I played this on a Macintosh computer if that helps.

This is NOT Defender of the Crown. Please help, thank you!

Try browsing gamers at Moby Games. Just browse by platform - Macintosh, and by Year. Take it one year at a time. There are roughly 50 or so games a year on the Mac in the early 90s so it might not be too long.

But it wasn't a Mac game per se. I could play it on a Macintosh or Apple computer (I don't know the difference) It was one of those games that could be played on an Apple or a PC

I remember playing that game in hypercard class.

I suggested browsing by Mac titles because there are fewer to go through. If you browse by Windows or DOS you'll take centuries.

If it was released on the Mac, even if not exclusively, it should show up in one of the Mac lists.
