I have not played this game. I have not even seen it being played (Ferg does most of his playing overnight). But I can say that Ferg has been playing this game like crazy and loving it! I rarely hear him say how much he is enjoying a game unless it starts with an A and ends in venture. So I have a feeling this is going to be a great episode!

just been playing this, for the first time...
i don't remember you (ferg) mentioning it during the podcast but did you have to reload the game everytime you played, instead of being able to reset?
i'm using a harmony cart on an ntsc 7800, is it any different on the VCS? (i'd rather play it on the 7800 cos all my VCSs are pal and the crappy palette on pal is, well, crap)
great game btw, only had two games so far and couldn't remember anything you said on how to play it, but i managed to get up the stairs to the 2nd floor (1st floor for those of us in the UK) and got 79 points, which is prolli terrible, but i'm enjoying myself...

You can reset each, uh, load. For example, Load 1 contains Mazes 1 and 2. If you reset in Maze 2, you have to start back in Maze 1, and it's the same for the other loads. The cassette prompts you when you clear the 2 mazes to load the next 2, but the combined rom does that automatically. Keep trying! |

It should have been under "Sword of Saros". Opps! |

Hey Ferg. When you read my feedback for this episode, you said you didn't know who the Talosians were when I said the Mindmaster reminded me of them. Here is a picture of a Talosian. Ironically, the Talosians have very powerful mind powers that create realistic illusions. I have to wonder if the artist was inspired by these characters from Star Trek when drawing the Mindmaster. |

I recognise that guy but the Mindmaster reminds me more of the Mekon from Dan Dare:  |
