Knight Lore

Notes
The classic isometric arcade adventure from Ultimate Play The Game.
In Knight Lore, the player character Sabreman has forty days to collect objects throughout a castle and brew a cure to his werewolf curse. Each castle room is depicted in monochrome on its own screen and consists of blocks to climb, obstacles to avoid, and puzzles to solve. [Wikipedia]
Knight Lore, the first of the Filmation games, has been retrospectively described in the press as "seminal ... revolutionary" (GamesTM), "one of the most successful and influential games of all time" (X360), and "probably ... the greatest single advance in the history of computer games" (Edge). [Wikipedia]
Originally written by Chris and Tim Stamper for the Sinclair Spectrum. Converted to the BBC Micro by Paul Proctor.
