Information AboutThe Pawn |
''The Pawn'' is an Interactive Fiction game by Magnetic Scrolls which was first published by Rainbird in 1986. It is remembered for its excellent graphics (on some versions) and its opening music which wasn't available in the 8-bit versions of the game. Also the game itself - story and parser - got mostly positive reviews. The story takes place in the fairy land of Kerovnia, which you need to escape from. AMIGA VERSION'S TITLE MUSIC Amiga version is notable for using digitized instrument samples in its title music. When the game was released, Amiga was the only home computer which had hardware support for digitized samples. However, there was probably no other Amiga game released in 1986 that utilized the capabilities of Amiga's Paula sound chip like ''The Pawn'' did. This means that ''The Pawn'' was a pioneer release in the field of digitized Computer Game Music . The peaceful title music is composed by John Molloy and it features guitar and flute sounds among others. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS
