Adventure/RPG game for Colecovision?

Are there any adventure/RPG games you've come across for the Colecovision? I'm thinking of something similar to Advanced Dungeons and Dragons for the Intellivision and Adventure for the 2600. I saw a Tunnels and Trolls game was in development for Coleco, but that was never released.

There's not a lot of choice in the adventure/RPG department for the ColecoVision, but there are a few:

 

- Alcazar - The Forgotten Fortress

- Gateway to Apshai

 

Homebrews:

 

- The Black Onyx

- Quest for the Golden Chalice

- Dungeon and Trolls

 

 

That's clearly not enough. We homebrewers should make more of those. ;)

The Black Onyx, pretty interesting RPG once you get used to the map and lots of monsters!

 

The most appealing thing is that you can save your progress in the internal memory, I've played it 30 minutes by day or so, it probably took me one month and a half to finish it.

I still intend to start working again on Tunnels and Trolls, but unfortunately, I'm too busy for some time to work on CV games.

Isn't Dungeon & Trolls supposed to be Tunnels & Trolls but the name was changed for copyright reasons?

Quest for the Golden Chalice is an outstanding ColecoVision version of Adventure that was released by Team Pixelboy a couple of years ago:

Dungeons & Trolls was released last year by CollectorVision and is still available to purchase:

I made this for my best friend. So Dragon Warrior RPG type of game is doable on the Colecovision. I programmed this game C programming. I want to use the same engine to make a RPG to be released for the Colecovision some point in the future. I may translate the graphical text adventure I did into Dragon Quest RPG style. I just have to get into the mood to program more games.

any chance to see another run of The Black Onyx and Quest for the Golden Chalice one day?

That's a no for Quest for the Golden Chalice, but it's a maybe for The Black Onyx. There are talks going on to get new copies of The Black Onyx added to the AtariAge Store, but that's a bit long-term at the moment. Albert has yet to add the Team Pixelboy games that were supposed to be added to the AtariAge Store before last Christmas.
