Walls Of Illusion




Sit back and relax for it's Jackanory time!

I picked up a random (#101) issue of Atari ST User magazine (see below) from my collection and sat down for a good read with a nice cuppa joe. All of a sudden, I almost spat out my coffee in disbelief. There it was. Something I had forgotten about: my old Motelsoft favourite - Walls Of Illusion.

How could I have forgotten about this?? Perhaps I'm crazy!! Yes, but, for those who don't know, Walls Of Illusion is a "Dungeon Master" follow-up to Arcan, released in 1993/4 (shareware). This is an impressive and extremely well-made RPG so I think I should lock myself away for a few days to relive it?

Has anyone played this RPG? I'd love to know if there are any fans. I remember playing this like crazy even though I would never have come close to finishing it! Anyhow, I feel like I've just been reunited with an old friend and I'm so happy! Atarimania has the registered version to download. Go on, get it. Play it. Live it!!



It's time to be flabbergasted because
Motelsoft still has a website w/ Atari ST downloads!

  1. This was released 1993, sort of the year after i stopped using my STE. I wonder how good this game could have been, by all the same. I was playing Ultima Underworld in 1992 so no worries ;:P

    1. You missed a lot then, and this game is brilliant mate. Why not look right for the yearly links for other ST goodies you’ve missed ;p
      Look right for “ Atari ST games by year of release”
