'Twas a time of dread. The land, once so fair, now ravaged by the greatest pestilence since the time of the "Black Wanderer" and the "Unborn one". Three thousand years have passed, years in which the once beautiful land has all but been destroyed.
For three thousand years nothing has been heard of the "Mysterious Stranger", but now on a dark, wet and windy night be returns, to you, a descendent of the "Singer of the Song". You are a mere child, still flushed with the vigour of youth, but it is to you he comes. You who have never done anything heroic in all of your seventeen years.
"The Trouble With Trolls" - or at least so my old Mum used to keep telling me - was that they simply never knew when to give up. If they found themselves faced with a plateful of best, prime quality "deviled orc's eyes" then they would just sit there and eat them all until they were sick. Or else they would do battle with their strongest enemies until neither of them were capable of swinging another blow. Worse still, they held on to their gold with a grip that few could break and had even been known to lay down their very life to protect it or to take yours in the process!!!
As for getting them to part with treasure such as diamonds and pearls that was almost a task beyond the talents of even the most ardent of the adventurers that chose to undertake it. So it was that such a task needed to be carried
out and so it was that BRIAN WOODLOUSE was the poor unfortunate sod that had to do it.
Russian game adaptation of the board game with the same name. Each player has six round pits and a Kalah, which is a longer pit. When starting out stones are evenly distributed to the round pits (3-6 in each depending on game options chosen) and the aim of the game is to collect more than half of the stones in the player's Kalah.
"Quadron is an original arcade style game for the 48K ZX Spectrum created in the mould of the 1980s Williams classics.
Set in the Quadron complex, you are charged with the task of defending the crystals mined by the relentless onset of marauding aliens.
Featuring fast arcade style gameplay, multiple weapons, enemies, collectables, powerups, and a pointer based status screen and scanner, the game calls for both fast reactions and a surprising dose of strategy!"
"The game was written in assembler on the Spectrum over the course of two years and completed in early 1988. Sadly, the publisher (now defunct) pulled out towards the end of development and the game remained unreleased along with its plans for an Amstrad CPC conversion. Now on its 30th anniversary I'm making it available for anyone interested.
While I don't have access to the original source code, I do have many of my original notes and have been working with the disassembly to prepare the game for release with a few tweaks and bug fixes.
