Looking for Artworx' Strip Poker

Post by **Andre** » Wed Dec 15, 2004 10:40 am

Not that I would really need that game

but there is an ugly gap in the Artworx-section on the shelf hosting my collection. This gap of course needs to be closed. If you have Strip Poker (cardboard box edition, not the flat folder) for sale or trade (I have tons of trading material!) let me know, please.

Artworx used to double Atari and Commodore in the same box for some titles, so I could check my stuff.

I have two cardboard boxed originals and a very nice clam-shell version of the first game.

I'm pretty sure I have several data disks, but I would have to look to see what they were. Again, I bought these as Commodore games, so I don't know for sure if they're C64/Atari combos.

Let me know if I should dig them out...

Are you sure? I don't have too many Artwork titles. But none of the ones I have is dual-platform (neither flippy, neither 2 disks).

I suppose it is possible, that as many other publishers, later re-releases (or later printings) were dual-platform. Frog, Andre?

Ghost Chaser is a "flippy" but I can't think of any other games... BTW, the name of the company is Artworx

Jerry, do you have a company catalog by any chance?

Isn't human brain amazing!

For some reason, I misread the company name long ago. And since then, even when I've seen countless of disks/boxes/references/etc, I kept reading what was in mind (and not what it was written).

Yeah, it wasn't a typo. I was sure the name was ArtworK !

I have several Artworx titles -- I'll dig them out and check, as well as look for a catalog.

I recently pulled out Chost Chasers and it is in fact C64 & Atari.

More info to come...

I forgot to look for a catalog, but here's what I found:

Space Pilot - C64
Strip Poker - C64 (paper box)
Tank Attack - C64
Vaults of Zurich - C64
Slap Shot - C64
Strip Poker - clam shell (canadian) - C64 & Atari

Cool. I've never seen the clamshell packaging for that one.

Because that is not the Artworx release. It is the canadian release by Advantage. Probably rarer than the US release?

This also explains why it is flippy. I have a couple of other Advantage releases and they are also flippies.

Even though it's the Avantage release, it does still show the Artworx brand on the side and front

Another title I forgot to mention was Sorcery by Artworx. Personally, I like these clam-shell releases -- the hold up much better than the paper boxes.
