The Faery Tale Adventure for the Amiga
Added by
OmniOmen A popular and innovative game from the late 80's. The game is based around the quest of three brothers to retrieve the talisman stolen by an evil necromancer and return it to their home village Holm. The game's gameplay resembles that of Ultima VII (1992). At the time of its release the game featured the largest game world yet (over 17,000 computer screens) with no loadings. The technique used to store such a huge world involved creating small-sized maps out of small shape-sized blocks. Those small maps were reused and fit together seamlessly to form larger areas. Loading was synchronous, and would happen when nearing the boundary of an area, without affecting the smooth scrolling, animation and music.

Great music.
Frederiksen78 I still remember the suspenseful music when suddenly some dark figures would attack.
"Flee or attack? But I just found this very interesting cave that I want to explore... but have absolutely no idea how to find it again".
Certainly one game that succeeded in creating the illusion of an endless world to explore. Would love to play the game again, and finally get a chance to shatter that illusion ;)
rolac There actually was a pc version as well. Not quite as good quality as the Amga one though.
