Notes
One of the last commercial releases for the BBC Micro. A rare game, long missing-in-action. A copy was finally found and archived in 2020.
To play the game in your web-browser, first download the zip file by clicking the "Download" button on this page. Unzip the file to your desktop. Then click the "Play Anyway" button on this page. After the game has booted and you've selected a character and chosen your options, the game will display the message "TRAVELLING TO COUNTY ONE", at which point you should click on the "Discs" menu in JSBeeb (the BBC Micro emulator in your browser) and select the menu-item "From examples or local". Load the file named "BLADEDANCER COUNTY DISC 1 Human.SSD", which you just unzipped. Then press a key to start the game.
Gameplay instructions are available at Stardot.
This game requires Sideways RAM. More details at Stardot.
