An excellent swashbuckling action-adventure for the C64!

Cardinal Richelieu has betrayed the queen of France!

To blackmail her into giving in to his wicked will, the cardinal has had his heartless agents steal Queen Anne’s diamond studs! Heeding the desperate pleas from the queen’s maid, four brave musketeers have sworn to foil the dastardly deeds of the cardinal and retrieve the royal gems, or die trying!

Alas, disaster has struck! Three of the musketeers have been bested by the cardinal's men, and the diamonds have been hidden in secret locations around and below the streets of Paris. You must rescue the three musketeers, find the diamonds and challenge the cardinal!

You are the last of the loyal Musketeers, the only hope of Queen Anne!

I used to play Zorro on the C64 as a kid, and this game reminds me of it. I love the great stuff Psytronik releases. I haven't tried Sherwood yet, but I'll probably give the demo a go on my TheC64 during the holidays and buy it if it's as much fun as it looks.
