3-D Pac / Nadral

Post by Atari Frog » Sat Feb 18, 2006 12:43 pm

Hello,

Does anybody have release information for 3-D Pac and Nadral?

Was 3-D Pac released on its own or was it part of a compilation? Was Raindorf Soft, AMC Verlag, AMC Verlag's Secret Games label or PPP / Verlag Werner Rätz the official publisher?

What about Nadral? Was this ever released officially by Atari Germany? A submission rejected by Atari Germany?

There was a review of Nadral in the german Atari Club Magazin 4/84. So I guess it was officially released...

Thanks!

Actually, it seems Nadral was a disk release with a nice trailer (Andreas Wiethoff's own words). Does anybody have the uncracked version? Otherwise, I'll e-mail him directly.

Got the information for 3-D Pac... It seems a number of AMC Verlag games aren't even listed in the database. Will take care of that tomorrow :)

I just found an old interview with Julian Reschke in the german Atari ST archive. Julian stated that they (Julian & Andreas) sold Nadral to Atari Hamburg but Atari didn't released it ! :-(
Here's the link to the interview (in german...)

So, let's hope that Andreas still has the full version - good luck !

Makes sense, because all German collectors I know of (me included) have never seen an original disk/tape, manual or box of this game during our collectors life.

I remember this game, played it on a proper A8 (when i still had working 1050's), the best part of the game for me was the German speech synthesis, which went something like this...Spieler ein(s) schloss

It was an OK game, very similar to the Americana/Synapse game 'Shamus'

I think the intro-music was even better - crystal clear sound and nice melody.
