2026-03-15: MediaWiki has been reinstalled and the old database and files restored. It was pretty clogged up from being upgraded so many times since 2004. I am also testing out Cloudflare to see if it can prevent the 'bot assaults that took the site down last year. 2026-03-16: Special thanks to Don Barber for hosting a backup mirror of CoCopedia: https://cocopedia.dgb3.net |
Temple of ROM
Temple of ROM is a loose clone of Adventure.
Unique elements include teleporter dots.
In this game, you are collecting treasures, and battling monsters, in a LARGE, scrolling maze. In some ways, it resembles the Atari 2600 classic cartridge Adventure, but only loosely. A rather neat story about the programming of this game: it was actually programmed on a cassette only system, using the EDTASM+ cartridge assembler.
