As a geeky teenager I spent much of one summer holiday (the proofs in the title screen above - September 1988) - when I really should have been outside getting some fresh air - writing a Spectrum Adventure that was to be known as "The Challenge Of Iythus".  Work completed, I sent it off to review to my very favouritist (sic) Spectrum Magazine in the world "Crash" where it received the princely sum of 73% in Issue 58 of said tome - Highest adventure game score of the month!!  Hey, I have to get my little victories wherever I can get them these days...

Both pages of the review are attached below for your convenience

And here it is.  My opus.  My masterwork.

The Challenge of Iythus (128k) - Part 1    The Challenge of Iythus (128k) - Part 2

And please don't ask me for any solutions.  I've forgotten more about this game than I ever knew.  So there.
