Ghost Town

"Enjoy the quest and play it again and again and again..." says the first screen of this graphic adventure.

It's a little optimistic of the programmers to think that you'll be so hooked on Ghost Town that you won't be able to drag yourself from your Commodore.

The story is as follows. A prosperous town has been turned into a ghost town by the wizard Belegro. All things of value have been collected and stored in one room.

By solving the clues scattered around the nineteen screens, you have to find Belegro and get the treasure.

I lost interest in this "quest" after two or three screens. Ghost Town may feature a wizard but the game casts no spells over the player.
