Sir Lancelot (thing)

You are SIR LANCELOT. Astride your winged horse PEGASUS, you set out on a quest to save a poor maiden held prisoner in a castle by a fire-breathing dragon. As you start your journey, winged creatures wil try to kill you, but with your charmed lance and carefull flying by PEGASUS, you can overcome their challenge. You collect points for each creature destroyed and when all are gone you reach the castle and face the dragon. The wily dragon will not fight you directly, for he has seen how you devastated the creatures outside, and beathes its fire at you from behind a magic screen. The fire will not kill you, but will temporarily stun PEGASUS so he cannot flap his wings. Kill the dragon with your lance and you will save the maiden. Once the dragon is killed, you will face new creatures guarding another castle, and these defenders will have heard of your exploits and be more difficult and so will the dragon.

In this odd interpretation of Arthurian Legend you play Lancelot. But not just a normal Lancelot, one with a "flying horse". The game's box calls it a flying horse, but we all know it is a pegasus, and the recently found manual uses that name as well. You fly around, (pretty much aimlessly), fighting giant birds and the random dragon. In truth, this is just not a good game. It may have been a quick reprogram of a another title, (common in the Atari days).

This game was available by itself on a black cartridge, and it was also sold on an oversize double-ended cartridge along with Robin Hood.

This game is valued at around $40 USD. The double ended version is a bit more uncommon than the standard version. Games with boxes and manuals are worth more.
