Don't know how many of you are familiar with this game,

but here is a great video from the AVGN regarding Swordquest, an old Atari game complete with a treasure contest.

I wish I still had the comic.

awesome

when Atari organizes a competition, they're not screwing around (well, in the first place at least)

great vid from AVGN as usual

I would be kind of neat for a current publisher to try and pull something like that off....
But with today's coders etc... they'd take apart that game in a second.

Still... I'd play

Pretty epic and a good Angry Video Game Nerd episode. I tire of him bringing in characters (ex- Bugs Bunny) as well as an excess of cheesy effects so this episode was refreshing (like the Atari 5200 one).

That was pretty ambitious for an atari 2600 game.

I just saw it. I myself was to young for the atari.

But the contest looks awesome. They should do that now, with other games.



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.
