Time now for another game map, especially because it's Christmas time

Castle Adventure is a game that was provided for free to the disk subcribers of the famous MSX Club Magazine, this with number 25 released in summer 1989. It's an amazing game that uses a mix of MSX-BASIC and language machine and has been developed with Game Builder, a tool to facilitate the creation of such games.

All the detailed tips are available in "Het Grote MSX Peeks, Pokes en Truuks Boek Deel 4", but now you can have an high-colored map! Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

So I guess it was OK to add it to GenMSX :-)

Wasn't it published by MSX club magazine then?

Drack Soft (1991) is not the original publisher (a pirate ?).

The original game has been released in 1989 by MSX Club Magazine and as the map shows it, it has been programmed by FGI (Free Games Inc.)

So, I think it should be corrected on Generation MSX!

Hmm ok... All I find is the Drack Soft release in various places. Do you have a screenshot of the original loading or title screen?

I don't mean to be pedantic, but just FYI: the item you have listed as "chandelier" is actually a "candelabra." A chandelier is something that has to hang from the ceiling -- if it's held in the hand, it's not a chandelier.

...That said, just going by the map, this game looks really cool! I've never heard of it before, but it seems right up my alley. I'm going to have to check it out! Thanks for putting together this map!

The MSX Club Magazine is a single disk (360kB). You can find the disk image (disk 2 of Magazine 25) on the official site (or on the double CD MIllenium).
