Ghost Town - A classic game from 1985 gets a C64 remake


In 1984 in Germany by Kingsoft, and in 1985 in the UK by ANIROG , a C16/Plus 4 game was released with high praise that had you searching for a treasure in a Ghost Town. You also had to kill Belegro, the wizard and avoid many different dangers while also collecting usable items found throughout your journey. That game was of course ' Ghost Town ' designed by Udo Gertz & P. Hartmann, and at the time featured 19 amazing hi-res graphical rooms in a top down view! To coincide with this little history lesson, a developer by the name of @awsm9000 has not only created a C64 version, but you can still play the Javascript remake which is linked below.
