Adventure II

Who says a game has to be from a commercial company to be good? For those with an anti-corporate leaning, there's nothing like a game from an amateur programmer, especially long after the system has been supported.

Adventure II

Post by Zap! »

Does anyone have this homebrew for the Atari 5200? I picked it up last week from Jess Ragan. It looks great, comes with maps, a key, etc. Haven't gotten to play it yet, I first have to dig the 5200 out of the closet. :)

Hopefully your controllers are still working :o

I was never able to get into the original Adventure, but a good friend of mine has Adventure II on an emulator, and really enjoys it. The gameplay certainly looks smoother than the original Adventure.

I personally loved the original. So much fun finding the "dot" if you know what I mean. :)

Believe it or not, no. It's sitting in my display case right now. I've got to stop being so lazy and dig that 5200 out of the closet. :atari-logo:

Yeah, real-ly :P

I know what you mean, though, it can get to be a pain. Especially since I have a tiny room and closet right now; argh!
