A quick entry for a title which was to be an Electronic Novel for Broderbund and Synapse. Where most of the planned titles were released and coded by Joe Viera (http://www.gamebase64.com/search.php?a=5&f=1&id=1963&d=18&h=0), the rest of them for some reason never quite … Continue reading
A short entry for a title which was written by Patricia Curtis, and was snapped up in the end by Microprose. Before that, Patricia was touting the game around to several publishers. All we know so far was that the … Continue reading
Due for release in May 1985, Blue Sun was believed to have been a graphical adventure from Zinta Micro-Systems in 1985. Sadly, although advertised in the US – it seems the game was never released. Quite possibly it was due … Continue reading
