The legendary game Dark Castle has been revived by game developer Z Sculpt Entertainment. The remake, Return to Dark Castle, offers re-drawn graphics, additional levels, and the same classic sound effects that made the original a classic.
“The original three man team of myself, programmer Jonathan Gay (who then went on to create a little something called Flash) and audio man Eric Zocher were crazy back then for making a two-floppy disc game that ended up taking the 128K and 512K Mac world by storm”, says Pierce. “Zack and Zack at Z-Sculpt have been lovingly crafting this re-mastered version for over a decade and it has my full endorsement”. “Playing these levels takes you back to the roots of videogame history and at the dawn of Mac gaming” continued Pierce. “It’s gameplay is still as addictive today as it was when it first came out.” We are reintroducing this huge game with literally days of solid gameplay at an attractive $4.99 price to introduce a whole new generation to this much loved Mac classic.”
