If it was written (and not released) then its possible that there is no info on the web - You would probably have to contact someone from Tynesoft to ask about the game

I'm 99% sure there's no info about this particular piece of software on the web - other than our humble listing of course. Face it, this site IS the place for all C16/Plus4 stuff. When I have time, I google the web searching for anything we can find.

Until we get our hands on it, even the existence of it is somewhat questionnable. I decided to add it however because in the Tynesoft booklet it was NOT listed as "available soon" - like Mount Vesuvius is, which we do know that was later released. They talk about it as a real release. Same on the back cover of the Super Gran game.

In my opinion the fate of this game was that almost no-one bought it, because it was just not popular. The few who did buy if discarded it, but some must have kept it. So what we're looking for is collecting dust in someone's attic in a box...

If I had lots of money, I'd take out one-pager ads in some British computing magazines and offer a cash reward. Then wait for the (mistaken) emails to pour in...

I have one question. The instruction section of the now declared 'fake' scan has a portion about Adventures for C16/Plus4. Is that also fake? It doesn't look like that.

It could be existend - but we do not know - just think on the Wizard of Wor cartridge from Commodore. I have seen a cover (and box) in an advertisment but nobody seems to have it - maybe it was a prototype or a show box.
