Hi Allan and all.

Ah, another Atari Freak!  Hail brother!  I remember all those titles too, in
fact I still have several working atari systems here and have some of them
on good old 5.25" floppy disks and tapes although I avoid the tapes like the
plague whenever possible.  Not sure if I have the original Montezuma game or
not, may have to hook one of the old beasts up and see.  It is amazing how
many of those old games we can play, true not as well as a sighted guy/gal
but we could learn them because the sounds actually meant something.

Regards,

Tom

Hello,I remember playing  several old atari computer games in the old days.
My friends and I would have to load the program into the olde timey atari
800 with a cassette loader. Any little bump or movement in the load would
crash the load and we would have to start it again. So basically you had a
bunch of kids being very still and quiet for ten to twenty minutes, and then
a flurry of fisticuffs for the wico joystick when the game was ready to
play..lol Man, we used to play blue max, shamus, this very cool game called
age of discovery, and the classic lode runner. I seem to recall playing
monty's revenge as well and this  game returns back alot of memories... One
question for James. Was any sounds used or recreated from the original game?

Anyway, I am going to have to buy a copy for myself and my friend from those
old days. He is sighted, but playing something like this, being a recreation
from a game he actually played might be very cool. thanks allan
