Scott Adams graphical adventures. S.A.G.A

[Denny]

Hello,

I'm putting together walkthroughs of all the Scott Adams graphical adventures on different 8-bit formats on Youtube.

I've started off with Adventureland on the C64 and i plan to do the Spectrum version at some point. I'm trying to locate all the adventures that had graphics and what formats they came out for.

Do anyone know of a website that lists all the graphical adventures for all the 8-bit formats please.

Not offhand. You might have to search for one platform at a time. If you search for each game on CASA and there are screen grabs of the SAGA version for a particular platform, then you'll know that it exists for that platform.

I know that SAGA versions exist for the following:

• Atari 8-bit: Adventures 1-6 and 13, Buckaroo Banzai and the Questprobe series
• Apple II: Adventure 1, Buckaroo Banzai and the Questprobe series
• TI-99/4a: Return to Pirate's Isle

There are no doubt others. The Adventure International catalogues may help.

Welcome!

I cannot supply a list, but I can tell you that I have yet to find a graphical version of any Scott Adams adventure for the Dragon computer.

For the ZX Spectrum, only Adventureland, Secret Mission, both Savage Island parts and Claymorgue have graphics (either by Teoman Irmak or Julian Howell). I think these were never marketed as SAGA, as far as I'm aware. There were ports of Pirate Adventure, Voodoo Castle and Strange Odyssey, but without any graphics. There are also at least two different ports of Pirate Adventure and Voodoo Castle, one of which wasn't done by Brian Howarth like the others, and looks completely different to the rest. The ones that AI (UK) never ported to the Spectrum were The Count, Mystery Fun House, Pyramid of Doom, Ghost Town and Golden Voyage.

I'm not counting the Questprobe games as to me these are not part of the numbered Adams series, but all three had graphics on the Spectrum.
