Synopsis
Notes
This adventure was included on the compilation tape Merlock the Mede Pilgrimage; along with The Deeds of Glengarry Hall (by Andy Hackett).The two adventures on the tape are *very* different. They were obviously created independently and then brought together under the crude "Merlock" framing device.
B. Aldred is credited in the game database, alongside main author Peter Dwyer. It seems probably that he's the "B.A." who create the "Merlock" loading screens.
The eight adventures of Merlock the Mede were planned to be delivered across a "tetrad" of releases. Players were promised a free Merlock digital watch, if they collected all four cassettes. However, only the first compilation was released. The planned Amstrad version, mentioned in C&VG January 1986 also doesn't seem to have happened.

Boring, misspelled to the point of illiteracy, poor in description and ambience, and one of the too many examples of random amateur games that gave the Quill a bad name.
