It's a game quick-review I found in a very old magazine (1983).

It's said this game title is "The Quest" and it's a floppy disk for the Atari 800.

 

This games seems to be VERY GOOD so I tried to find the game image on the web but I haven't found anything with this title.

 

Here is the description (there's no picture in the magazine)

 

It's a graphic game adventure and the history starts after a post nuclear war.

The player had to cross the USA to find the last civilized human colony.

 

You'll meet mutated monsters, radiations clouds and giants bugs.

 

The game alternates day / night.

The player has the possibility to consult a map.

 

These are all the infos I have.

 

Someone knows this game and/or where I can find a disk image ?

 

Thanks

The storyline of Wasteland is similar to the description I made. But, according to the infos posted at "the computer show" the review, wasteland was released in december 86 and the review of the magazine was from 1983.

 

Plus they said wasteland was not available for the atari 800.

 

must be an other game.

 

Anyway, thanks to have indicated me Wateland. I didn't know this game so far and It looks very good.

Funny thing. Until I read this thread I didn't even know of the existence of Wasteland, but from the sound of it, it sounds identical to the online game of the same name back in the BBS days; I used to play it to death on the rare few PC-based Telegard BBSs I called. I then started writing a port of it on the ST. (Never did get it done, but I got it far enough to walk around the map and enter the base compound, complete with monitored RAD and health stats)

 

Now I'm gonna hafta look the real game up and play with it...
