Magic (c) 1987 Titus!

Eh ... a TITUS game we don't have any screenshot of in HOL, can this exist?
Yes, it can!
As Private ADF Investigator Tim's assistant, I sneaked around on some game sites again, until I found this BRILLIANT Titus game history, written entirely in Flash:

http://www.titusgames.com
[edit]web site defunct

With background music, screenshots, box scans and whatnot!

The only game we've never found though is MAGIC, published in 1987. You can see the original box, so it should exist, shouldn't it?
Looks really nice, liked to take a closer look at it *drool*

True.
Well you know what happened to Titus, don't you?
Guess why I still have a copy of my screenshot on my HD! Because if the scan on EAB gets trashed or lost in any way, the evidence for the game will be gone!

@Andreas
The site hasn't been preserved by the Internet Archive?

Good question. I've already tried this, and it seems that it hasn't. But please give it a try yourself. The site was almost entirely in Flash, hence the chance to get this archived in a readable form is near zero.
If there had been an alternative non-Flash version available, there would have been a chance to re-read this now.

In that case, check your browers cache, it may all still be in there...

Are you serious?
I'm one of the guys that PURGE their cache at least all 2 weeks to avoid too much HD activity. Then take a look at the date of the original post ...

The thing is the link was actually working a couple of days ago, but seemed to go down only a few hours later.

Too true methinks! Yeh forgot it was in flash. Doubt archiving would have been possible then by the Internet Archive. I'll give it a try, though, although it will probably be an exercise in futility.

Unfortunately, this game NEVER hit the shelves in france.

But we can suppose that a copy like a master still exist somewhere......

Do you have a confirmation for this game being unreleased?
