Ah, I'd forgotten about those. I saw the ads as a kid and was interested but never got a chance to play any of them. This does remind me of The Hobbit, though, which seems to have some similar features:

- lobster_johnson 9y agoThey're similar. The Hobbit was simpler from a parser perspective. But it had music. It also had the added feature that all the art was vector graphics [1], and it drew the vectors slowly as you were watching. (The graphics models on computers like C64 were limited in the ways colours could be placed next to each other, so while the drawings are beautiful, they also look a little wonky.)
