Dr. Morbis | 2,125 Posted January 13, 2024 Share Posted January 13, 2024 I really dig the box art you've got for this release, but just to be clear, is this the same game that was already released for the NES under the name "Dead Tomb" a couple of years ago? 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/14236-point-and-click-adventure-dead-tomb-is-coming-to-nintendo-switch-xbox-nes/#findComment-392528 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for asking. The game is almost identical but does have a few minor updates.

Acclaim is by now just the brand that was acquired, right? Or is this some long lost prototype release?

wongojack | 368 Posted January 27, 2024 Share Posted January 27, 2024 Collectorvision released this for their bespoke system which is an upgraded re-release of the ColecoVision. AFAIK, it is the only game released that will NOT work on the original Coleco and requires the upgraded components inside the Phoenix. I bought it and played it to take advantage of my Phoenix purchase and well . . . it is a below average game. At least in the state I played it. I did a short review here: https://forums.atariage.com/topic/306956-dead-tomb-reservations-phoenix-exclusive/?do=findComment&comment=4746812 Summary Graphics 5/5 <- excellent these have the be the best on the Phoenix Sound & Music 5/5 <- superb Core Game Features 2/5 <- it never broke on me, so that's something Story and World 2/5 <- could have been so much more Puzzles and Design 2/5 <- needed more of a challenge 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/14236-point-and-click-adventure-dead-tomb-is-coming-to-nintendo-switch-xbox-nes/#findComment-394380 Share on other sites More sharing options...
