Development[]
The development process was both handmade and homemade - tapes were not manufactured until they had received enough orders to justify them ordering copies of the print covers and making duplicates of the cassette tapes. Originally they received a few tens of mail orders, but this later ballooned into several hundreds.[2]
Reception[]
El Mundo Del Spectrum wrote that despite its simplicity, the game "overflowed with magic and charm".[3] IGN recommended that players take out a paper and pencil to draw a map and avoid getting lost in the game's world.[4]
Legacy[]
The game was featured as part of FX Museum's official launch celebrating 30 years of their company's video games[5] - by this point, Dinamic Software had evolved into FX Interactive.[6]
