A student project that became an award-winning commercial game.

A great reminder that good game design isn't about adding more.

Powerplay - The Game of the Gods

Now, those that know me, know that I loves me a quizzo, I do, however, I've always found computer quiz games a bit shit. Enter PP on the #C64. What a marvel it is. The gameplay board reminds you of The Adventure Game, a little, but, yeah - just play it!
