Karate Champ

 

[Tykinruoka]

Argh, I was late. Karate Champ it is.

 

[Raisin Bran]

Yup karate champ!

 

[Xalles]

Hehe, they played Karate Champ in Bloodsport. That movie still cracks me up.

What game is this (cropped!) screenshot from?

 

[Ozbenno]

Dig Dug????

 

[Xalles]

Dig Dug is seven years off and a very different type of game. But both Dig Dug and the game I asked about had versions for "the best-selling single personal computer model of all time", according to Wikipedia anyway.

 

[Xalles]

It looks like my cropping may have confused you folks a bit too much. The full shot should help tremendously:

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

/hits escape to exit

no?

 

[Xalles]

Alrighty! One last hint before I go to bed. Some of you probably figured out that I cropped that first shot to hide the fact that it is merely an in-game automap, and not normal gameplay.

But if that wasn't enough, here's a shot of the kind of stuff you'd usually see.

 

[Heretic_Cata]

Something that is like Wasteland but not Wasteland ?

 

[Ozbenno]

Bards Tale? Don't know which one so I'll say I, II, III, IV or V

 

[Heretic_Cata]

I think Bard's Tale is 1st person.

 

[Till]

I was thinking Bard's Tale, too, but the interface doesn't quite look like it. Besides, there is an automap feature in the Bard's Tale games? Arrrgh...

I'm guessing Dragon Wars.

 

[Xalles]

Yehes! Dragon Wars is the answer, and you guys followed the path right to it. The same folks made Wasteland and the Bard's Tales, and Dragon Wars was indeed one of their first games to have an automap.

Congrats Till!

 

[Till]

Thanks and a belated welcome to the Video Game Quiz crowd!
Here's one of the first RPGs i have played. Took me forever to get it to run back when it came out, and it wasn't until DOSBox that i could actually watch the intro and listen to the music!

 

[Ozbenno]

That also sort of looks like the towns in Bards Tale but the interface isn't quite right.
