- Advanced Dungeons and Dragons for Intellivision, full playthrough hardest difficulty. Emulated under MAME and played using mechanical keyboard. Not one of my best runs, but it shows how to play at hardest level.
I still remember every sound effect from this adventurous game and that special apex tune after completion of the crown. All of the warning sound bites were great indicators to what lurks within the hidden mazes but the dragons were no joke. Just the sound effect alone gives you a jolt of anticipation and they were so fast! D&D and Treasure of Tarmin (the colored doors!😱) were two of my many favorites on the incredibly fun Intellivision System.
discovered this game when i was 3, still terrified of the sound effects xD
I was born in 1984....so Im 40 years old now. But i remember watching my dad play this game in 1989 and 1990 when i was 5 and 6 years old at my late grandmothers house on there old intellivission system. I remember loving my original Nintendo more...but this game, demon attack, Tron, night stalker, and horse racing were my favs to play and watch people play 😊
Ah dude, thanks for posting this!!! My Dad had Intellivision
, and I use to get so scared hearing the dragon lol.
That dragon scared me as well! And it's frightening even for today's standards!
Wow, i feel so young rn-first time i see a DnD game for the Intellivision!
My first time playing this was on the intellivision collection for evercade. The game is absolutely brilliant!! Its easy to see how it became so beloved.
The harder the level you play, the less arrows you get per quiver. (You get 11 on the gray level, 9 on blue, 7 on red, & only 5 on purple!)
While there is a difficulty level, it's a setting for the game overall. The colors of the mountains tell you what tool you can find in there to travel through the overworld. Gray is for (most) arrows, blue is for the boat to travel across water, red is for the axe to be able to travel through woods, purple is for keys to travel through the lock in the walls.
Thank you for posting this I'm at a point in my life where I'd rather sit and watch someone else play games than do it myself
Thank you for the appreciation
This and Tarmin defined my entertainment life in the early to mid 1980's. I think they both still hold up very well. I remember when Ultima 6 (and later 7) came out I was completely surprised and disappointed that 3D dungeons were not part of those games. After all, Tunnels of Doom and Treasures of Tarmin were literally old-school even then, and they had 3D dungeons! Forgetting 3d for a moment, the first "Advanced" game for the Intellivision, shown here, had diagonal game play. Counting arrows by sound instead of a stupid graphic on the screen? Brilliant!
Tarmin is SO UNDERRATED.
It plays the most awesome sound when you win.
The most awesome ever, I agree with you
One of the first games I've ever played, I was 4. Barely understood what I was doing. I remember the sound effect it made when you finished it thought.
This game straight up scared the living s_** out of me whean i was akid.
It still scares me today 😅
Was it the graphics or things like running from the birds? Born in 95 so excuse my ignorance. Grew up with games like Silent Hill.
@@zearr0 It was several things combined. The sound effects and the speed and proximity of the enemy coming out of the darkness at you were potentially fatal jump scares, which created a sense of paranoia, hesitation, and anticipation. There was also tension build-up because the snakes and dragons you could hear in the dark, and you could try to triangulate their position by moving and listening, or by risking wasting an arrow or shooting yourself with reconnaissance fire. Failed recon fire if close to the enemy would enrage it, sometimes causing it to shoot out of the darkness without you even having lit the room. Combine that with scarce resources and I'd say it was one of the earliest survival horror games. When I was like maybe eight, I remember fear and apprehension being the driving emotions playing it. IMHO it's a largely forgotten, underrated game that should be celebrated as one of the best-designed and executed games of any generation. The design was clever, innovative, and tightly focused.
Wow, your strategy is way different from mine. I always shoot those pesky bats, because the sound of their incessant flapping covers up the sound of a snoring snake or dragon. Before I learned this, I used to let them follow me like pets, too.
I do the same at the easier levels. Unfortunately, at the purple level, you'll get so few arrows and you can't waste them for bats...
Ahhh yup I was 5 playing this .
I have this game but only on an Intelivision Plug n Play I found at a thrift store. I don't have an actual Intelivision. :(
That's actually a remake made on a hardware similar to Nintendo NES, but it's fun as well to play
Spiders always annoyed me stealing all my arrows!!
One of the nastiest enemies at the hardest level, since the number of arrows available and found is very low!
Great stuff!!
Thank you very much!
Uhuuuuuuuu! AWESOME!
Thank you!
Woah that was a close one 😅
Lucky!
This is a groundbreaking game. Think of the games where you can hear the monster before you see the monster. One game like that is Minecraft. Each type of monster has some sort of noise and the loudness of the noise tells you how close the monster is.
Those dragon's aren't playing!
They received what they deserve! 😆
I lobe how thia has nothing in commo. With the aquarius one
@@robloxnoobblox the Aquarius version is a downsized version of Treasure of Tarmin, the second game of the AD&D series for the INTV
No real ending, which is kind of a let down.
it's a common issue for the games of the time
That sound is worth it, though!
Such an intense game...especially for a young kid, as I was when I played it.
Nice win, by the way - it doesn't get closer than that!
Barely made it!
It was a close call!
Wow, ive never seen the end. Kind of lame, but thank you!
