Knight Lore My journey's end is near; as the last few ebbs of daylight dance fleetingly in the cooling twilight, and then suddenly dart off to chase the red sinking sun.

BC's Quest for Tires
Software Projects, 1985
"Help! Help!" - It's Cute Chick, and she's in trouble. The dinosaur is holding her captive. If Thor doesn't get to her in time, the dinosaur may even eat her! Can Thor save Cute Chick from the hungry dinosaur? Only you can help!
At first he only has to jump rocks and holes. Then comes the river. The only way Thor can get across is to hop on the turtles' backs. These turtles sometimes get tired and submerge at the wrong moment, much to Thor's dismay! If Thor's timing is good, the Dooky Bird will help him over the lava pit. If he jumps the pit just when Dooky Bird is overhead, that prehistoric bird will pick him up and carry him across! Once over the cliff, Thor faces his most difficult challenge: the volcanic eruption. In addition to the obstacles on the ground, he is showered with boulders from the sky. Then once again, Thor must cross the river on the turtle's backs. If Thor can get past Fat Broad and into the cave, he has only to go a short distance to go to rescue Cute Chick. On his way, Thor must duck under stalactites to avoid rashing. If Thor is lucky, the Dinosaur will be out wreaking havoc on the countryside. Thor is pretty brave, but not really a match for him. If Thor does crash, don't worry: he has four wheels. But true love is calling him, so use all your agility and cunning to help him rescue Cute Chick!
