Anarchic System

By James O'Grady released 2021-10-12

These four games all use the Anarchic System of S.Robert Speel (Hi Bob!), from his New Adventure Systems for the Spectrum, Fontana, 1984.

Valley of the Swampbeast has you in a valley looking for the buried treasure of the swampbeast.

Hoard of the Exile has you looking for treasure in a forest by a gorge.

Island of the Penguins has you shipwrecked on an Antarctic island. You need to find a paddle and get to the boat to escape. The DELUXE version has line drawings of the monsters.

Labyrinth of the Minotaur has you searching the Labyrinth to kill the Minotaur, steal his diamond and return to the start with enough money to please your greedy followers. The DELUXE version has line drawings, an attractive font, a loading screen and the "score" verb.
