THE GAME

    Dungeons & Dragons is a game totally based on the TV animated cartoon show of the same name.

    The game was created and sold on MSX-Jaú 2004, where a small limited batch was released to MSX computer fans, in CD-ROM with DVD cover.

    With videos from the cartoon being played on the game using the EVA tecnology, you go through the story of the last tv-aired episode, "Cave of the Faerie Dragons".

    Counting not only with the videos to tell how the story unfolds, the game also uses the 256 colors from screen 8 to achieve a graphical level few times seen on a MSX. And it still uses MSX turbo-R PCM to play a sample on the game over screen ;)

    Dungeons & Dragons, although being a short game created as a concept-proof of what a MSX can really do, is still a very enjoyable game.

    To run this game is necessary an MSX2 or superior with 7Mhz (MSX turbo-R recommended), IDE Interface, MSX-DOS2, MSX-Music, 128Kb mapper and CD-ROM.

This game does not work on emulators.


IMAGES

    You can choose which main cartoon characther you want to play in the game:

  •  Bobby, the barbarian.
  •  Diana, the acrobat.
  •  Eric, the cavalier.
  •  Hank, the ranger.
  •  Presto, the wizard.
  •  Sheila, the thief.

    Every character has its on advantages and disadvantages; for exemple, Bobby is the strongest, Eric has the better defense in the game and Sheila is the one with more probabilities to run away from conflict successfully.

CREDITS

    I would like to thank the people below, mostly because without them this project would never been possible:

  • Seiji Sato - If it wasn't for the MSX turbo-R kindly donated by him on the Baboo! promotion, this game would never have been produced.
  • [D-Tail] from Bitwise - Thanks to his EVA-CON converter there is a MSX2 version of this game.
  • Kari Lammassari - for creating his amazing Pascal routines, witch I used as a base for my own routines used in the game and that are a part of MSXPad.
  • Daniel Caetano, Dante Nishida and Adriano Cunha - for bugtesting the game during it's development, and for the support during it's creation.
