I have played this game for many years on the Apple II. Does anyone have
any
background information relating to this game? Is it based on a novel??

On the title screen, it says, it was created by Art Canfil. The Apple
program was by Mega-Mirco Computers. Copyrighted to Avalanche
Productions
Inc.

I never found anything about who Art Canfil is, or what other projects
he
did. Whatever happened to the other companies?

By saying, it is an Apple program, one might assume that there are other

versions for different computers, is that correct?

What does the original Apple II version box look like? Anyone posted it,

on the web? I'd love to see it...

Thanks,
Jeff.
