jhd Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 I see that amongst the games listed for the forthcoming Atari 50th Anniversary Collection is Swordquest: Airworld Has any information been released about this title (other than a single screenshot)? I was wondering if this is based on the original prototype, or if it is an entirely new creation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RecordManiac12 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 I was in the Fireworld playoffs and prepaid for all the Swordquest carts and still never got to play Airworld. I'd like to know more about it too !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimefighter Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 (edited) Nope, it's a newly created game -- Swordquest: AirWorld – Yes, you read that right: After nearly 40 years of waiting, the team at Digital Eclipse has created the fourth and final entry in the legendary Swordquest series, inspired by the design concepts of original Swordquest creator Tod Frye. Who will be the first to solve its mysteries – and finally complete the quest? https://www.atari.com/games/50th-celebration/ Edited July 31, 2022 by Crimefighter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzip Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I'm curious if the new Airworld will be true to the originals or if it will actually be fun? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RecordManiac12 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Are you kidding? No! They stopped communicating with us and treated us like we didn't exist. It was like a TV show that was canceled after the second season and they didn't bother to tell the actors. It was only later when Atari was trying to make a comeback that they started talking about SWORDQUEST again. We got no TV shows, no sponsors , and no apologies. I'm not complaining, I'm just stating the sad facts about how all gamers were treated in the early days of gaming "AFTER" the first collapse of the video game market. Before that, during the playoffs, they treated us like ROYALTY . Site seeing tours of San Francisco, Alcatraz, Fisherman's Wharf, China Town, and feasts like you wouldn't believe.
