cx2k Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I broke out the old 8-bit today and started playing with some old carts when I re-discovered the classic that is Captain Beeble. I had forgotten how maddening yet addictive this game is!! I spent about 5 hours playing and was only able to get up to screen 6 or 7 (the one with the moving "jaws"). Anyone else spent some quality time with this or know how many levels there actually are? Thanks, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Isn't Captian Bebble for the A8 REALLY rare? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allas Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 (edited) I spent a lot of time in this game. Really, one of my favorites. Even I think Graphics are beautiful, and the puzzles are very well designed. That was 20 years ago, sorry, I cant remember the details of the end.

oesii Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 This was one of my favorites as a kid but I really haven't put in a good amount of time into it in 20 years. Gives me something to do tonight though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 (edited) Isn't Captian Bebble for the A8 REALLY rare? Few users outside of Canada have it, but I don't believe that it was a really rare release. I picked up my own copy in a bargain bin sale in 1987, and living in Toronto at the time, I used to see quite a few InHome titles floating around, almost free for the asking. Really rare Canadian A8 title: Poussinet. I never saw this one for sale, anywhere, although it was advertised in Antic.

We have it as a "9" but that's for a complete version. Finding it boxed is really hard. The rarest Inhome Software titles are Alien Numbers and Math Pack. It seems Baseball was also on tape and disk but I have NEVER seen these versions anywhere, just the cartridge release. Really rare Canadian A8 title: Poussinet. I never saw this one for sale, anywhere, although it was advertised in Antic. Yes, there are some 10-15 titles that seem pretty much impossible to find, though they were definitely released.

LYNXGUY Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I used to play Captian Bebble (Captain Beeble) and I never got to far and if I remember correctly I only got to screen 3 however my best friend got to screen 6 but I have no idea how many screens there are.
