A short entry to what could be a complete series of extensions for Whole Brain Spelling by Sublogic that were actually released. Just recently in November 2021, Allan Pinkerton helped to preserve the Whole Brain Spelling – General Word List … Continue reading →
This is a RPG based game with a slight twist on your typical western games. Here in this particular game you have to buy land, tools, materials and then start building up fame and gold in the wild west. You … Continue reading →
An interesting entry which ties in quite nicely with Attack of the Killer Tomatoes by the same company. Wild Women of Wonga was to be based on one of those old really cheesy sci-fi movies which came out in the … Continue reading →
Wildfire was a W.I.P title for a game in development at Starlight Software/Destiny. The game is not anything to do with the shooter we already have in GTW. Could it have been a space shooter?… a puzzler? Thanks to Max … Continue reading →
A quick entry, again as we lack information at present. This is not the Mindscape game, but this was due to be a conversion of the Capcom arcade game. News of the conversion was mentioned in Commodore User magazine back … Continue reading →
This is a very short stub entry for now for a game called Windsurf, which was a sports game concept for a Commodore 64 game that was highlighted on Viktor T. Toth’s website. We know very little at this stage … Continue reading →
Thanks to a contributor called Mike, he found within the manual of Spitfire Ace, an advert for a game called Wingman for both the Atari and C64. The game was released on the Atari at least, and was a split … Continue reading →
Yet another film licence which was in development by Ocean Software back in 1990 also known as "Firebird". This was only really reported in the pages of Commodore Format, Issue 4, and nothing else was really heard of the game … Continue reading →
A very obscure title, and one we knew very little about – though ‘Anonymous Contributor’ (referenced as ‘AC’ in the rest of the page) has helped to shed some great light on the title. Much of the information written below … Continue reading →
Yes, the game was indeed released – though there were a number of changes that had to be made during development, including many ideas dropped from the final game. In issue #77 of Zzap 64, they revealed that there were … Continue reading →
Zzap 64 have certainly posed many mysteries over the years, and now we present yet another one thanks to the eagle eyes of Martin/Stadium 64. Winter Games was a fantastic release on the C64, racking up a great 94% in … Continue reading →
Witch Way is a C64 conversion of a rather rare Vic 20 game from CDS (from the same time period as Road Toad). Thanks to an archiver of the Vic 20 cartridge on the Denial Forum we can let you … Continue reading →
An intriguing title from CRL which we know little about on the C64 and doesn’t seem to have been released on any other platform. When GTW team member Alex Ross emailed the guys from CRL about this game, neither seemed … Continue reading →
1982 Commodore Platform: Commodore Vic 20 A short entry for a title that we are not 100% certain at this stage was ever started, but has featured for years on the Ward Shrake Vapourware list. The list contains a number … Continue reading →

Have you ever wondered why one game from the Wizardry-series is lacking from the C-64? Well I did, and it led me to a little research in that area. After checking release dates it seems that the Wizardry-series was released … Continue reading →
Now, as we all know – Wizball got a release and was one of the best games ever to grace the C64. It’s a fantastic title which you should check out if you haven’t already. However, German magazine "Happy Computer" … Continue reading →
Wolf has been a game in the GTW archives for some time, only known for its Rob Hubbard tunes which have thought to be lost. We did a bit of research but could find no other games of this naming … Continue reading →
Wolfgrounds we believe is a text adventure game by the same people who were selling Exod (Another title we have just added to GTW). The game was sold on disk, but it seems that this is one that either didn’t … Continue reading →
