The One
1st April 1992Beyond The Ice Palace
Think of a land, far away and full of mystical creatures... You're now entering... Beyond The Ice Palace. This place could have been a dream, but there's one slight problem: good and evil don't get on at all (what a surprise). The nasty evil forces have taken it upon themselves to be extra devilish this month.
They killed innocent woodcutters and burned down their houses with their families still in them (at least that'll stop all the trees being cut down for no reason - thanks, chaps!) The good people are beginning to see that everything isn't what it was and have decided to appoint one person to sort it out. They fire a magical arrow up into the air, and the person who retrieves it will find himself in a weird and mystical adventure
Yeah, you guessed it, you're the idiot that picked up the arrow, and now you're going to pay for it. Helping you on your quest are a couple of spirits that cause quite a bit of damage to the evil minions that prowl the forest.
Simply make your way through the fantasy worlds trying to survive, which picking up various energy replenishers and extra bonuses. When you first start playing Beyond The Ice Palace, you would think you're playing on a C64. The graphics look as though they're a straight port. The music and playability both match the standard of graphics and, all in all, produce a completely unplayable and unjoyful game. Don't get it... unless you want a good laugh!
