Title: "New" Adventure: Mike Taylors "NOSFERATU" from VIC20 - 1982
Post by: SRS on 21:24, 15 February 17
This is a conversion of Nosferatu  for the VIC-20 from 1982. I did not manage to do a 22 × 23 Mode so this is a Mode 1.

Original and map and so on can be found here: http://www.miketaylor.org.uk/tech/advent/nos/#gsc.tab=0

Hope you have some fun with it !

Thank you! It is certainly a hardcore game with a very primitive parser. Charming, but really difficult to play. Funnily enough, it uses some of the conventions that we would see later in PAWS, but the 3 letter code is really something to avoid if the RAM allows it  :-X . On the other hand, back in those days most of the instruction manuals were really short, something that did not help either. A list of common words would have been really valuable for the player  :)
