Re: old EA greek myth game?



That was one of the first games I fired up when I got an apple ][
emulator working a couple months ago.  I spent a fair amount of time
with it back when it was new.  There was also a similar forerunner to
it, Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves (or something similar) which used the
same engine.
