As much as I appreciated the artistry of Thunder Castle, the slow speed of your knight prevented it from being truly great. Well, now there is a hack available from Intelligentvision which addresses this flaw and really helps the game reach it potential. Having a lot of fun with this one.

My dilemma now is, do I give this game a grade? I usually don't do that for hacks. Thoughts?

Put me down as one of the few gamers who thinks the knight's speed is just right for the game. If he was faster, wouldn't Thunder Castle be too easy?

Intelligentvision does amazing things with Inty games! His hacks of World Championship Baseball and Slap Shot Super Pro Hockey are amazing upgrades

Go ahead and break your hack review rule - It is for the Intellivision after all!

I would say give it a grade. If it was a graphics hack or one that made minor changes, I would say no. But this one sounds like it made a pretty significant change that made the game a lot better.
