Heart of Africa

Commodore 64 · 1985 · US

Also known as: Heart Of Africa

Publisher: Electronic Arts · Genre: Strategy

January, 1890. The Africa of your imagination is about to become real. BOOK PASSAGE TO ANY PORT: You have the thinnest of leads, the diary of a madman who disappeared hunting for the hidden tomb of a legendary pharaoh. You also have no time to waste. There are over 30 cities and settlements to visit, and you're not the only one on the trail. SEARCH FOR CLUES AND EQUIPMENT: What the natives know will help, if you can get them to talk. The tools and goods inside their huts will help, too - shovels, canteens, canoe paddles, whips, ropes, machetes, guns, maps, gifts, and more. Just be careful. Not everyone will be happy to see you. GEOGRAPHICALLY AND HISTORICALLY ACCURATE: Imagine a huge map of Africa stuffed into your computer. The Nile. The Congo. The Niger. Mt. Kilimanjaro. The Sahara. Lake Victoria. The whole thing. And if you get lost, just press the button. "The Nile River," the screen will say. What it won't say is, "about 2 miles above the falls." AUTOMATIC MAPS AND RECORDS: As you explore, your computer draws maps and keeps a journal, recording the most important clues for later review. It also keeps a record of your last two, uh... misfortunes. "Lost incredibly valuable talisman while running from very angry rhino," it might say, or "Oops, better luck next time."
