Yeah... that girl on the initial screen is hot as hell. No doubt about it. With some more perseverence and a tad of favorable bounces I shall be able to get out of the basement and purchase some adequate clothing. These ripped child shorts can testify
Zorro on the c64 is one of my favorite games I used to play for hours cause of the music!! I beat the whole game years ago... no trainer! excellent game made by Datasoft along with Mancopter, Bruce Lee... I have those games as well for my c-64 & also for my c-64 emulator on the PC!! I still play them to this day!! grew up with the commodore 64 back in 1985 when I got it as a Christmas present! u know what everyone says these days on the internet, still cant live without the c-64 after 30+ years!!! and we grew up calling BBS'ES in the USA... I miss the old days!! internet is totally diff. not like dialing up to call out & used to hear your modem make those weird sounds & connecting!! god, I miss that!!!

One of the first games I completed by myself. I remember I loved how Zorro kills the guard and leaves bloody marks. Some interesting puzzles in the first part of the game. Funny that it's only after all these years I see how similar this is to Bruce Lee, just with more adventure type puzzles. Bruce was a cool game as well and something a mere human can actually complete, which was rare on C-64.
Yeah, and similar to "The Goonies" - with the difference that you could change between two characters by goonies. I also loved this kind of games but never could finish Zorro...
Very exciting game. I don´t know how we figured out the steps at that time. It took forever. But it was rewarding. Finally getting into the crypt felt like landing on the moon :-D
this game I played alot on my c64 back in the day! love the music on it, but keeps repeating tho.. hehe.. I can hear it in my head as im typing this... haven't played it in awhile... have it on my emulator for my pc... i still have my original equipment to this day ! got this game from a friend back in 1986 I believe ... the copy I had for years was released by someone that used ISEPIC to crack it.... later on I gotten other cracked copies I wanted for my collection.. :) miss the old days playing with my c64 for hours as a kid!! game gfx still look great after all these years! thanks for the video upload!
Hi, thanks a lot to the gameplay, when i was young it is a nightmare to solve this game..........the challenge is very good, have a nice day and C64 is alive in 2021 it is amazing
I miss games like this. A bunch of cryptic objects and no clues or explanation. You had to just figure it out yourself, and it was so rewarding when you did.
I could never get out of the grave, it kept on changing and was too much for my single digit age back then. Thanks for clearing up the nightmare and seeing the 'end'
Great game for the time amazing game play sfx music and grafix, I love how the girl pushes you in to the water if you dont have the rose, for years i was thinking that was the end of the game, ahhh memories
+blood mapedit the great Rob hubbard made this zorro tune?! no way! i always thought it was one of the datasoft engineers that helped Scott spanberg... huh... :/
It is a "PRE Rob Hubbard era tune" as in "before Rob's tunes came on the scene", never said it was made by Rob. It was composed by John A. Fitzpatrick.
blood mapedit I got confused .. thought rob hubbard composed it.. my mistake.. :) John fitpatrick did a great job on the tune for the game... Fits perfect for it.. :D thanks for replying back to me...
This came out when i was a kid. I walked in the room and my older brother was playing this game and i asked.... "What happened to the music?" "It became annoying" he stated...lol "Turned volume down"
The fact that you to fight and get 3 guys to hang on the chandelier took me a couple of days before I accidentally knocked a guy off on to it instead of just killing him. Lol.
I loved the game, but i usually turned the sound down since there is no other sound but the music, i don't even wanna go there it gave me those "i can't stop the melody in my head" moments..
13:42 - 18:19 That entire part always confused me. I knew a little about how to get around (just barely), but since the screens looked very similar to one another I simply gave up and accepted that I was somehow trapped in one of those "infinite screen" boards where if you don't exit the screen a certain way, you'll keep seeing the same thing. On top of that, all the disappearing/reappearing platforms and floating ladders was bewildering to me. ;_; I never made it to the new surface area there.
Holy crap, I had forgotten this game. A friend of mine pirated this back when it was new. We didn't even know what "pirated" meant. This, Fairlight, GI Joe, Beachhead, Mail Order Monsters...no instructions, had to figure it out.
Never thought I'd see this game played from start to end not losing one single life... How much time did you spend on this game? :-) I also have to say that I think some of the puzzles were quite clever for a game this old. Thanks for the video. Impressed!
Never could figure out as a kid what i need to do, trying every locked door with the steer-branding device... so ~30years later i can finally put it to rest. :)
I remember that I finished this on a sunday just before lunch! And this is an important passage becos I was playing it thru the TV set in the kitchen! My father used to say that the TV would break becos of the crappy graphic. My mother used to say that I would become mentally ill becos of the addiction to these "nevrotic games"
played this lots as a kid but didnt get far, certainly not to the blue levels. Its funny how some things stick in your memory though, the chandellier and bellows are iconic of this game
Wow, I didnt know that it had a happy ending, I always got slapped by the girl and fell into the well, or somthing. I didnt know you had to giver her something. I always thought that it was supposed to end with the girl being angry.
+Brian Bagnall Actually, didn't you just have to stand and run toward her? When you stood up straight she reached out for you, but if you were in a fighting stance, then she didn't, and if you approached her as though you wanted to fight her, she'd kill you with a single blow. I don't recall any bowing going on, at least in the C64 version that I played and completed.
oh yes i remeber this game well.one of the best in c64.those puzzles were amazing especially with the drink which transforms the belly of a mexican to trampolin lmao
THIS GAME IS A WELL MADE ROMP VERY MUCH WITH BRUCE LEE SOUND IS GOOD BUT REPETITIVE....SO UP TO YOU...GRAPHICS ARE A NICE YELLOW AND BLACK STYLE....SO YES TO THAT.....
i didn't know I made a post here about the game til I seen my msg from 2 years ago! i wasn't sure if this was the site I was on... :) should've looked further... my mistake .. sorry for making another post... :/
Oh... I see! You bring wine poster to a guy in the bar, he is getting drunk, falling asleep and then you bounce off his belly to jump higher. Just can't imagine why young me could not figure it out. Silly me.
I am playing this again now on a C64 emulator.! So great. I feel like 10 again, hahaha. Why was there never a AMIGA version of this game? Btw. The DOS version isn't bad either but the C64 version ist just TOP :D
My best attempt was also till the RIP passage. Then, exactly what Nirvana Paradox said - I thought this is infinite and this cant be the way to win the game :/ I was... 5 or 6 back then :D
We Had The Atari St Version The Music Was More Serene And Graphic And Fighting Seens Were More Exciting,, But I Am A Spectrum,, But Got To Take My Hat Off Too C64 For The Better Graphic Overall On Most Games Loved The Atari St Though,,,,,,
I both owned and played this one, and talk about obscurity! I could see it getting less-then favorable reviews on multiple levels. It's not just a matter of complicated puzzles, they're really really obscure. Does anyone have an article to what reviewers thought of it at the time?
@@jordanscherr6699 I had Bruce Lee on the Apple ][ which was actually a decent game. And a friend was going to get this game for his C64. He was glad he didn't after seeing the article.
0:20 you AMATEUR missed the FIRST leap. I never did in the 80's nor do I miss a single jump on that screen nowadays. TBH I never stopped playing since. Never had a job, never kissed a girl AND NEVER MISSED THAT INITIAL JUMP. You damn beginner
Datasoft also produced two awesome RPGs in the Alternate Reality games. They also made a very good port of the arcade game Juno First, as well as the C64 ports of Mr Do and Pooyan
Ok...30 years later I finally know how to play this game. Brings back alot of frustrating memories, thank you!
Me too
@@claudiorossi1413 Same here hahaha
I could never figure it out either.
Same here. That game broke me. Haven't been able to be a normal human beeing since then
Yeah... that girl on the initial screen is hot as hell. No doubt about it. With some more perseverence and a tad of favorable bounces I shall be able to get out of the basement and purchase some adequate clothing. These ripped child shorts can testify
How annoying with a 10-15 sec music loop over and over again. Our parents must have gone mental listening to us playing for hours back then.
***** LOL!
+dahDougieBoy hahaha, you're right. An easy and short game but very fun. The music loop was boring so I switched to sound effects.
Super annoying music !
I always kept the volume on low and had a cassette radio next to me.
Ahahahah! Right!
What a classic!!!!!! I was 9 when I got this. And could never get anywhere in it. But just loved doing what I could do.
Who the F--- keeps locking that damn door! :D
The soundtrack of nightmares
you cant call anything a nightmare soundtrack after youve heard the soundtrack to Rat Race
@@bonavinter Heh, they can coexist
@@bonavinter RADAR Rat Race, please :D
Zorro's movement sprites kinda remind me of Bruce Lee also on the C64.
Well, the game was made by the same company
I got the same feeling.
...and of "The Goonies".

Fun kind of puzzle solving game. I just recall using the cow as a trampoline and I've loved video games ever since. Lot of easter eggs.

I feel like I'm playing Bruce Lee or Pitfall again...
HOLY SHIT! That brought back some memories!
Never played the game back then, but now I am going to play it.
I miss games like this. A bunch of cryptic objects and no clues or explanation. You had to just figure it out yourself, and it was so rewarding when you did.
I could listen to that music all day.
This and Goonies took up a good year of my life.
Pretty awesome soundtrack to this game.
I could never get out of the grave, it kept on changing and was too much for my single digit age back then. Thanks for clearing up the nightmare and seeing the 'end'
30 years later I just realized that in the crypt elevator are bones! lol

Oh ffs, I couldn't recall this game, then after 2 seconds of audio it all came back to me. LMAO.
Remember Antonio Banderas jumping higher and higher for each bounce at the cinema.
So that'ts how this game goes. Man, it's pretty complicated!
Very complicated with no internet or RUclips for playthrough videos. It's all random tasks.
I LOVED this game, and I still am. I could play it for like 10 hours in a row before my parents forced me to turn off the c64...
.. your parents listening to 10 hours straight of that music ahahah 😅
@@BalczoLev Hehe. Yeah, imagine that. I don't think I would have lasted a quarter of an hour myself, so they were very patient 😄
I remember the grave level was a nightmare as if you made a mistake you would have to start from the beginning of the game again
A couple of brain cells spasmed out after hearing the intro song...
-"we.... totally.... remember.... this....."
...they said.
A typical pre Rob Hubbard era tune.

Never heard of this before. Looks very good for it's time.
It sure does. Especially the physics for a platformer is great for its time.
I sure did play this game a lot.. I don't remember, if I ever finished this :)
I remember laughing when having to jump on the fat mans stomach in order to get high enough to get upstairs. Priceless.
This game was one of the best for C64.

There was an option to switch from "music" to sfx. Which was a higly suggested thing to do.
Yes, background music is turned off and on by pressing S.
