Today we are going to look at Cavelord, an Atari game for the 8 bit family of consoles and computers that was religated to Germany exclusive during its lifetime. It was released in 1985, and was programmed by Peter Finzel and published by Atari and Ariolasoft. I've been asked by Ramey Butler, friend of the channel and long time supporter, to look at this game. And I'm happy he did, because Cavelords is a game with a lot of things to discuss. It's also in the Public Domain, so download away my friends!
AtariMania Link to the Original Rom but its corrupted

Instead you can try this link for the original rom, but be careful. These sites are notorious for having phishing and malware virus' among other issues

Here is where I got the English rom, but the same warning as above applies

I score games on a 5 point scale. Here is what each grade means:
5 out of 5 is PERFECT! A must own game for all Atarians!
4 out of 5 is Great! Slightly flawed but still a fantastic video game.
3 out of 5 is Good. Many flaws but I still recommend people to try it.
2 out of 5 is Bad. Many flaws that prevent me from recommending it to all.
1 out of 5 is GARBAGE! Avoid these barely functional turds at all costs!
I also occasionally look at hardware, controllers, consoles and more, and those I flat out recommend or don't.
Also please consider joining the discord server! Its free and we talk all about Atari there.
