Ten-year-old me labouriously typed in the whole of the Island of Secrets to his C64, only to find that it wouldn't run due to some number of bugs. Sadly, correcting these issues was beyond my skills and patience at the time. Perhaps I'll find an emulator and see if I can finally try out that game, three decades later.

I remember pouring over the book and being so excited! It's more than likely that I just typed a lot of things incorrectly - I was quite young. Edit - looks like it's available online here: http://bbcmicro.co.uk/game.php?id=2135 http://bbcmicro.co.uk/game.php?id=2135
