In which I play "Spooky Castle", written by Brian Ison and Roy York, and published by Atlantis Software in 1988. It's becoming apparent to me that Atlantis was a bit of a shovelware operation. This game, like several other Atlantis titles I've played, would have benefited enormously from a round or two of play-testing and quality control.

Sounds are ... present, but they're not very good, and some of them are actively annoying. Graphics are just fine, not bad at all. Control is also reasonable. Once again, however, a game with great potential is ruined by terrible and inconsistent collision detection.
