I'm looking for Arctic Shipwreck, be it on tape, disk or cart (if the latter exists at all), preferably complete in box. Does anyone have it and is willing to sell it?

Cheers!
 
And up.
Or may I assume there really never was an original Commodore release even if the title screen does indicate otherwise? :)
 
Hi Finchy.

The first real release i can find are in the italian mag go games, then lateron in logica 2000. See here: http://specialprogramsipe.altervista.org/giochi.php?id_parent=11813

I have a search enabled on Ebay since years for this title. It never produced a single result...
 
Hi Exilent,

thanks for your investigation. All the covers that turned up till now were fake. I interviewed Victor Toth for Scene World Magazine, and he was not sure if he ever saw an original. I'd have to look it up in the article now, but I think there were also issues with the royalties that Commodore agreed on paying them. I think if they released it, it never received a decent packaging, not even a clamshell like they were used for even the worst games by Commodore UK. :) Maybe it was spread on some PD disks or something.

@Cinghialotto: I agree, I've never seen one either.

So I guess case closed.
