Holy Grail/Search for the Holy Grail

#1 Post by Strident »

Adding this as a note here as i reminder to research further, but these two games...

Search for the Holy Grail
http://solutionarchive.com/game/id%2C52 ... C+The.html
Allan Grigsby - Date Unknown

and

Holy Grail
http://solutionarchive.com/game/id%2C50 ... C+The.html
Andrew Field - 1984

appear to be extremely similar, going on the location text in the screenshot and looking at Dorothy's solutions for both.

So, I'm guessing either one is based on the other or that they share a common ancestor. Added to my list to investigate further.

Aha! They're probably both based on this VIC-20 type-in

(The Commodore scene is an absolute nightmare! :) )

The two C64 entries have been deleted and combined into the master Vic-20 one. All content, including the two C64 solutions, have been migrated over.
