We have just found out through the plus4 website, that Ready64 and Plus4World has announced the release of the command/text adventure game of Sire Fire for the Commodore 64 and Plus/4. As in the words of the website for Sire Fire, "Converted by Carmine Migliaccio (TSM), Spectrum original by Gian Battista Aicardi and Tony Aicardi originally released in Load'n'Run 36 (March 1987). Magazine excerpt courtesy of Ready64! To coincide with this news, Saberman will hopefully be doing a video later today showing the game being played.
Here's the latest from the website. "And the fourth night's the charm! Today marks the release of Sire Fire, the 4th ZX Spectrum conversion by Carmine Migliaccio (TSM), which should also be the last one, closing a completed series. The original is Italian only, thanks to TSM, Plus/4 owners however have the advantage of playing this game in English! This time, the author has spent his well known skills as chiptune composer by adding a couple of TED tunes, which are both basically covers of the ripped ones he used in the C64 version of the same adventure game".
"Sire Fire is populated with several homages and citations of the ZX Spectrum's gameing scene. Are you able to spot all the included references? Anyway, the game is on the shorter side, it's worth checking out for the graphics alone. Enjoy!"
