Hey! Just wanted to add my memories. I also played this game as a child -- it was one of the first computer games I learned to play when I was 8. What has amazed me is that even though now I'm 25 and haven't played the game in years, I remembered the basic set-up and where the sword was. My sister also remembered things about the game, even though she would have been 5 when we first got. We must have played it for hours on end to still remember it.
And yes, the monsters were way better in my head than they could have been as real graphics!
Thanks for sharing this!
