ThunderPeel2001 Posted June 28, 2005 Hello! My girlfriend wants me to find an old game that she used to play as a kid, but she doesn't know much about it and it sounds pretty obscure to me (maybe not?). If anyone can name this game I'd be very grateful! Apparently, you play a wizard, and from what I can gather, it's a sort of top-downy mazey type thing. Also, it plays 'Greensleeves' when you play the game. She's unsure of the system, but it was probably on the Amstrad CPC or (possibly) the Amiga 500. A test to your gaming knowledge! Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks alot! - Johnny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RLacey Posted June 28, 2005 AAARRGGGHHH! I have this game (Amstrad). I am going to look for the disc in a minute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loonyboi Posted June 28, 2005 King's Quest II starts off with a synthesized version of Greensleeves. That's not the game you're talking about (probably not), but I always loved that opening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Random Posted June 29, 2005 King's Quest came to mind as soon as you mentioned Greensleeves, but the platform doesn't seem to fit. If it is one of the KQ games (there are about 8 in total) you're probably after 1, 2 or 3; later games have a different graphical style. I don't think you actually play a wizard, but wizards are certainly ever-present. http://www.mobygames.com/game/kings-quest http://www.mobygames.com/game/kings-quest-ii-romancing-the-throne http://www.mobygames.com/game/kings-quest-iii-to-heir-is-human Point your girlfriend towards the screenshots and see if they look familiar.

Tanukitsune Posted June 29, 2005 Could it be Spherical? CPC Screen Amiga Screen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderPeel2001 Posted July 10, 2005 Oooh!! I hope this is it! I'm sorry not getting back to this thread sooner. I shall ask my GF asap! Thanks a million! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QueZTone Posted July 11, 2005 Or maybe its Snarf? http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/snarf/screenshots it probably isn't but i felt Snarf deserved some attention Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderPeel2001 Posted July 11, 2005 We checked out Spherical... apparently it looks kind of right, but there was no Greensleeves playing. The Wizard looked right, though. Any luck finding that disc RLacey? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderPeel2001 Posted July 19, 2005 Woohoo! Thanks Lacey! I appreciate it, you were exactly right! Weird little game though it is, that's the one she used to play! Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
