Games similar to Pentagorat? (Vic 20 Game)

[+Larry]

Pentagorat for the Vic 20 (if you are not familiar with it) is an isometric "escape from the dungeon" puzzle game. I can't think of any A8 games that are very similar to it, but there must be some. Do you recall any?

 

This game requires a 32K ram expander and is quite sophisticated for the Vic 20, I'd say. There are Youtube videos of the game play. It also supposedly can be played on VICE.

There have been some somewhat recent homebrew ports of Spectrum isometric games, but most of those game names escape me at the moment. Chimera is the only one that comes to mind. Here's a link to the thread:

I also remember one where you started the game in a prison camp (I think), but the name escapes me.

Little web searching and I found the prison game. The Great Escape:
