Labyrinth 2 by Sergey R.V. (Russia)
I'm puzzled about this game. It has two versions and three entries on the ZXDB as follows:
1.
First you have this one: https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/index.p ... 6&id=34316 categorized as Game: Puzzle
The TRD is 640 KB in size (I suppose is a full disk image, including blanks).
The file is labeled: LABYR2.1 and the game looks like this:
2.
The other entry is https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/index.p ... 6&id=21074 categorized as Arcade Game: Maze
It has two TRD.
First on, version 2.0
The file is labeled: Lab V2.0 and looks like the [1.] entry:
The other one:
The file is labeled: Lab V2.1 and seems to be the game that matches the screenshots:
3. https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/index.p ... 6&id=34308 categorized as Arcade Game: Maze
It's pretty similar to [1.]. But no TRD's, and no screencaptures.
---- ---- ---- ----
So, I think:
- [1.] should be categorized as Arcade Game: Maze.
- [2.] Seems to be a bundle of the two versions, and also has an extra developer credited, so, I think might be OK.
- [3.] Looks like a duplicate.
