    Brilliant, wonderful game. Beautiful graphics and wonderful sounds. The publisher is incorrect. This was from Cinemaware, not Mindscape. --- First Amiga release was published by Cinemaware. Later Amiga versions and every USA Atari ST retail version i've seen so far were exclusively manufactured and distributed by Mindscape, as indicated in the front box scan. Exclusive distribution is in contrast with the company being the publisher of the game. Marko

    Gawd, I played this to death. After all these years, I now finally (thru emulation) can win jousting tournaments. Great balance of short mini games and eye candy, with just enough random elements to keep you playing again. The sword fighting got a little old, however, so I often tried to win without raiding castles, and I found it hard to win unless a few key territories were captured early.
