I received a twitter about Atari’s Swordquest games from @unclemaffy, almost at the same time I happened to be playing Earthworld.

VERY MERON
Retroist, I think there might be a typo in your article. You said it was for the games that disappointed you the most…surely you mean the most epic of games for the Atari 2600. ;)
I think I was let down, because I bought into the hype and got nowhere near the prize.
