Can you find your way through the maze? The EXIT is there, somewhere, but so is a T.REX and it's after you. All in 3D, you've never seen anything like this before!

This was on a 16k ZX-81 - ages before Wolfenstein 3D and Doom...

Any other games which you can think of that gave the player a 3-D view on older computers?

Coooooooooooooool

*goes off to have a shufty at it*

edit - the site, not the software

edit2 : heard of adventure 200 - is it adventure 2000 or 200?

Because I've got an old book on how to write spectrum adventures, and it mentioned that specific game, but it was 2000....

Ja, the Spectrum still is my favourite PC... and also my first

*basks in glow of nostalgia*

When I got mine, I got a free game with it - was "Adventure A - the Planet of Death" and I cursed and cussed at it - and finished it two years later. Remember, back then there was no Internet, or BBS'es where you could ask for hints and tips...
