Description
Excaliba C64
“Excaliba C64” refers to the game Excaliba, released for the Commodore 64 home computer. It is a platform game developed by Jetsoft and published by Mastertronic in 1984. The game is also known as a sequel to the earlier game Cavelon and was sometimes referred to as Cavelon II.
Gameplay
Excaliba is a platform game where you play as a knight navigating a series of dungeons. The core objective is to collect all the pieces of a door to progress to the next level.
- Obstacles: As you collect the door pieces, a “Black Wizard” appears and releases hazards like birds and archers.
- Power-ups: A unique feature of the game is the floating Excalibur sword. Collecting it allows your knight to ride a unicorn, which makes it easier to avoid obstacles.
- Difficulty: Many players remember the game as a difficult platformer, with punishingly tight time limits on some levels and unpredictable enemy placements.
Publishing and reception
- Excaliba was a budget-priced game published by Mastertronic, a British software house known for its affordable titles.
- The game was released on cassette tape.
- While some players found it frustrating due to the difficulty, others remember it fondly as a classic retro game that offered a good challenge.
