Curator Review

Informational
By 花影居 January 14, 2021

“【复古董游戏】你对Apple II狂热吗？你喜欢《创世纪》早期作品或者《博德之门1》吗？本游戏可在Apple II游玩！购买实体芯片后支持1983年后的AppleIIe，IIc和IIgs设备上运行（需要外部转换器并建议彩色屏幕）。制作人是位花白发老人，我之前觉得做DOS和C64的人已经够情怀信仰了，还有人在做更古早平台，真·骨灰级玩家。早期《创世纪》画面，10个教程演示频内容功能挺多，也挺贵的。”

“I played the game the whole weekend, it’s awesome! The game swept me off my feet. It is really, really terrific!”
Jörg Langer im Spieleveteranen Podcast

“Modern games depict; old games symbolise; and this lost art is new again in Nox Archaist.”
