IIRC it _was_ a computer game. In the days of DOS3.2 ish on (IBM) PCs.
There were a lot around in those days. I suppose partly because systems
weren't really up to heavy real-time graphics.
I still think many 80-90's games still have appeal today. Many of them had
better gameplay probably _because_ the machines weren't powerful and the
designers had to put more thought into keeping the player entertained.
Nostalgia. Ain't what is used to be.
Cheers.
Andy.
