Maze of Mikor

[Vic20-Ian]

$18 was it on Cartridge?

Probably traceable to a german magazine listing eventually

Nope, on tape

I don't have Quest archived either by the looks of it in GB20, so very weird indeed! I imagine there's probably some files on Zimmers not in the database mind you.

I don't know if Quest was the European original and Maze of Mikor was the USA name but HES used to change UK game names and release in the US.

Confusingly this is not the same game as the C64 classic - Attack of the Mutant Camels

Pedant correction time. It's not Gridrunner it was the sequel Matrix renamed as AMC in the US by HES. They didn't like the original name and pinched it from one of Jeff's other games. When the real AMC was sold in the US on tape it was called Advance of the Mega Camels.

Looks like it is all BASIC.
Amazing that they were charging $18 for that in 1983.

Indeed, 77 lines of BASIC. And the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics calls that $47.00 in July 2020 dollars.
