1986The Advertising Blurb
Enter the amazing Discworld, set on a turtle's back. Meet naive, four-eyed Twoflower, the Discworld's first Tourist, with more money than sense. You are Rincewind, the inept and cowardly young wizard charged with safely guiding and guarding the ridiculous Twoflower. Wherever you go, his many-legged luggage is sure to follow. Meanwhile, Death, rather weary from overwork, has a few surprises in store.

Crash 88% / Your Sinclair 8/10Review:
Just before playing this game I actually read a review of one of the latest Discworld games. The reviewer in this instance stated that it was much better than the first one. For all those PC owners out there who seem to believe that games did not exist before the Pentium and Windows 95 it might come as a shock that this game was released not long after the original book.It might not have full motion video, CD quality speech and all the other high powered features that are all that matter to many PC owners but this is more than made up for by the usual excellent Delta 4 parser and the imaginative and well designed gameplay.
