***Knightmare*** is a computer game released by Activision in 1987 for various
8-bit and 16-bit computer formats including ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC,
Commodore 64 & Atari ST. It was written by Mev Dinc, J.P. Dean,
E.M. Dean and Nick Cooke, and is based on the Anglia Television show
Knightmare.
Knightmare was the first of two licensed games based on the show.
Four years later, Mindscape would release an entirely different game
(also called Knightmare) for the ST and Amiga formats only.
***Gameplay***
The player is trapped in a dungeon and must attempt to escape by
solving various puzzles. Casting spells is also a part of the
gameplay. There are six spells: Anvil, Casper, Alchemy, Ice, Toad
and Metamorph. Each has a unique result. The game is controlled by
using both the joystick and keyboard.
