Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure is a single player graphic adventure video game for the Commodore 64, Amiga and MS-DOS platforms. The game was developed by Off the Wall Productions and published by Capstone Software. This video game is a part of the Bill & Ted franchise and the concept is based on the 1989 film Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.
Gameplay[]
The player controls both Bill and Ted as they travel through different time periods and talk to locals to help find the historical figures for their oral report in present-day San Dimas. As in the film, if player does not finish the game in a set amount of time, the player fails the history report, thus losing the game.
Release[]
Capstone started up a trivia contest on the Computer Gaming World magazine, consisting of 10 questions about the game. The reader had to answer the questions on a card and send it to Capstone. The first fifty readers to submit the most correct answers, won "Bill & Ted" T-shirts.[2]
