I still remember every sound effect from this adventurous game and that special apex tune after completion of the crown. All of the warning sound bites were great indicators to what lurks within the hidden mazes but the dragons were no joke. Just the sound effect alone gives you a jolt of anticipation and they were so fast! D&D and Treasure of Tarmin (the colored doors!😱) were two of my many favorites on the incredibly fun Intellivision System.

I was born in 1984....so Im 40 years old now. But i remember watching my dad play this game in 1989 and 1990 when i was 5 and 6 years old at my late grandmothers house on there old intellivission system. I remember loving my original Nintendo more...but this game, demon attack, Tron, night stalker, and horse racing were my favs to play and watch people play 😊

The harder the level you play, the less arrows you get per quiver. (You get 11 on the gray level, 9 on blue, 7 on red, & only 5 on purple!)

@Rorschachqp 3 ай бұрын

While there is a difficulty level, it's a setting for the game overall. The colors of the mountains tell you what tool you can find in there to travel through the overworld. Gray is for (most) arrows, blue is for the boat to travel across water, red is for the axe to be able to travel through woods, purple is for keys to travel through the lock in the walls.

Damn those Bats used to drive me nuts; I'd turn the volume down when I couldn't afford to waste arrows on them. The Rats; used every swear word a 12 year old would know. My favorite game by far.

I played this game so much when I was a kid I would go on the hardest difficulty and clear every single dungeon on screen before finally going to the cloudy mountain. I could still hear that dragon snoring in my sleep.

Was it the graphics or things like running from the birds? Born in 95 so excuse my ignorance. Grew up with games like Silent Hill.

@kevinfishburne 9 ай бұрын

@@zzzearr0 It was several things combined. The sound effects and the speed and proximity of the enemy coming out of the darkness at you were potentially fatal jump scares, which created a sense of paranoia, hesitation, and anticipation. There was also tension build-up because the snakes and dragons you could hear in the dark, and you could try to triangulate their position by moving and listening, or by risking wasting an arrow or shooting yourself with reconnaissance fire. Failed recon fire if close to the enemy would enrage it, sometimes causing it to shoot out of the darkness without you even having lit the room. Combine that with scarce resources and I'd say it was one of the earliest survival horror games. When I was like maybe eight, I remember fear and apprehension being the driving emotions playing it. IMHO it's a largely forgotten, underrated game that should be celebrated as one of the best-designed and executed games of any generation. The design was clever, innovative, and tightly focused.

@pon2oon Ай бұрын

More than most know, this game was groundbreaking in terms of sound design, and perhaps the first true jump-scares in video gaming.

This and Tarmin defined my entertainment life in the early to mid 1980's. I think they both still hold up very well. I remember when Ultima 6 (and later 7) came out I was completely surprised and disappointed that 3D dungeons were not part of those games. After all, Tunnels of Doom and Treasures of Tarmin were literally old-school even then, and they had 3D dungeons! Forgetting 3d for a moment, the first "Advanced" game for the Intellivision, shown here, had diagonal game play. Counting arrows by sound instead of a stupid graphic on the screen? Brilliant!

That's actually a remake made on a hardware similar to Nintendo NES, but it's fun as well to play

@arnequis Жыл бұрын

Wow, your strategy is way different from mine. I always shoot those pesky bats, because the sound of their incessant flapping covers up the sound of a snoring snake or dragon. Before I learned this, I used to let them follow me like pets, too.

@AdrianoAvecone Жыл бұрын

I do the same at the easier levels. Unfortunately, at the purple level, you'll get so few arrows and you can't waste them for bats...

This is a groundbreaking game. Think of the games where you can hear the monster before you see the monster. One game like that is Minecraft. Each type of monster has some sort of noise and the loudness of the noise tells you how close the monster is.
