Serguei2 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Many Sierra adventure games are released for Apple //c including last ones: Gold Rush, King's Quest IV and Man Hunter New York. So was Man Hunter San Francisco released for this computer as well? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 No. MH: SF was the only AGI game not released on the Apple II or IIgs. Probably because the Apple II market was dying at the time. I had heard that someone was looking into 'porting' it to the IIe, but there were no details provided. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So was Man Hunter San Francisco released for this computer as well? I played Man Hunter San Francisco back in the day on the Amiga. It was decent, but it didn’t play like Sierra’s other games. You used a map to navigate the city (you didn’t control an actual character persey), and still images would appear on-screen for specific locations. I always thought Man Hunter had an Apple IIe/IIc and/or IIGS release, but apparently it didn’t. Man Hunter has always been one of my least favorite games by Sierra. Personally, at least imho - you’re not missing out on much. However, I will say that it certainly would be cool to see how an Apple IIe port of the game would turn out, though. The IIe/IIc’s graphics have a distinctive look that has always appealed to me (monochrome or color). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamgroot Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 If someone wants to do the screen captures to PNG or Jpeg, I can do a pretty good job of converting to the IIc's double hi-res. Having no animation would make programming the game a lot easier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serguei2 Posted December 13, 2021 Author Share Posted December 13, 2021 Sierra released Manhunter New York for Apple II/IIc and San Francisco has the same gameplay unless SF is more advanced than NY. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
