Played that on the Commodore. Going to have to see what the remake will look like.
Edit: wonder if they’ll still have the tits.

This was the only game that we had for a Gameboy that was given to us. It was well played but not well loved. Trying to conquer the board was impossibly difficult and the "rescue the princess" swordfight missions could be beat by holding right and pressing "BBBBBBA" repeatedly. The jousting was fun though. I had no idea it was based on an older game.
@Agent_Karyo it's the game that showcased what the #commodore #amiga was really capable of.
I must confess I always have mixed feelings about remakes of classic videogames of the past.
I played that on the NES long ago. I sucked at it.
Once I managed to unify England and win the game and I still have no idea how that happened and I'm sure dumb luck must have been part of it. It certainly never happened again.
Wow I feel old, I played it on apple 2c
