Found -> Castle Warrior

[Tim Janssen]

I remember a review in CU Amiga magazine of a RPG-game which is programmed by Delphine software. The game looked a bit like FTL's Dungeon Master and was released in 1989. I think the game had the word Dungeon in its title. Does anyone know which game I refer to? Thanks in advance.

I can't remember this being reviewed in CUA, plus for certain it wasn't from Delphine, but I can only think of (off the top of my head), two RPG's that feature Dungeon in the title and have a similar interface to DM:

Dungeons of Avalon

and Dungeons of Avalon II

But if it IS a Delphine game, it has to be Castle Warrior.

Wow there was actually a Dungeons of Avalon 2!! Never knew that, I really liked the 1st one so I'll now get the 2nd!
Cheers Twistin!

Castle warrior it is. I was certain the title started with the word 'Dungeon' but it seems I was wrong.
Funny thing is this is the first time I see this game in colour. I only remember its black'n'white screenshots in CU Amiga.
This game got a very low score (somewhere in the 40%, I think) which made it one of the lowest scoring games in CU Amiga in 1989. Is it really that bad?

About Dungeons of Avalon 1 & 2; Are these not German budget RPGs that came on a disc magazine?

That's very possible. They are indeed German origin, however getting information like this on many of the German releases is like pulling teeth.

The 'Dungeons of Avalon' title sounded very familiar to me, so I have checked the Amiga Joker-index.
It seems both Dungeons of Avalon 1 & 2 were produced by German company CP-Verlag. It was published in their Amiga-Fun diskmagazine range. Both games got a very good reviewscore (somewhere in 70%) in Amiga Joker

Thanks for that info, Tim!
