Sir Lancelot, ZX Spectrum

Another game I have fond memories of buying and enjoying back in 1984, Melbourne House‘s classic ZX Spectrum platform game: Sir Lancelot.

Considering that it was squeezed into only 16K of RAM (yes, it even ran on 16K Spectrums) it is a remarkable achievement.

Sir Lancelot is a simple collect ’em up set across 24 screens of platforms and ladders, with you as the titular ‘Sir’, jumping around trying to collect flashing artefacts, which in doing so will open an exit in each of the levels.

It’s basic platforming fun, but feels good to play and isn’t so hard as to be head-bangingly frustrating.
