Yeah, it means you can't link to that image on a forum.

DAISHI · 07/17/2011, 02:06 am

Link edited, question remains the same.

Is it the house from Zork?

Nah, that shit was whiter than a caucasian man singing the theme song to Fresh Prince.

It's a game I've never heard of anyone else playing. Was only available to people on the Prodigy internet service provider, before AOL dominated the 90s.

AOL was like freakin' Skynet back in the day.

Hey, I was almost correct when I said "old skool adventure game". Do I get a prize or something? If so, could you make it some cheesy bits on cocktail sticks please? I've got a hankering for some strange reason!

Ah so the game was called MadMaze eh?

It appears there is a link to play it here:

Good job Retro! Didn't realize you'd peg it so fast. It was the first adventure game I took the time to play through of my own initiative. For anyone looking for some old school gaming, well, Retro's provided the link. Mad Maze isn't brilliant, but it's an interesting look at a piece of gaming from back in the day.

Give me a clue and access to google, and I can find almost anything.

DAISHI · 07/17/2011, 11:53 pm

I just got through the first level of the Mad Maze. Took me three hours and, for the first time in years, I had to draw a map to navigate my way. Was pretty awesome!

I didn't have access to Prodigy, but I remember seeing the title screen on all the Prodigy flyers that came in Sierra On-Line game boxes. And the ads in old magazines like Computer Gaming World.
