Scott Stilphen is the guy who noted the similarity to Telepathy from a paragraph the guy commented on. He sent a note to http://www.atari2600nexus.com, but I'm not sure if it was a news bit (think so) or on the WWW Board.

More to the point, has anyone built their own? Has anyone reverse-engineered this puppy? Is anyone selling repros? :-) At 11:05 AM -0500 12/28/00, Rob Kudla wrote: >Does anyone else think this game looks like the screenshots of that >"unknown game" that were floating around last winter, sometimes called >Indy II? I'm pretty sure it's the exact same game. At that time the cart hadn't been opened, or that guy (if there were two) didn't bother.

It's possible Mind Maze was another name for Telepathy, though if the game IS the one Dan Oliver talked about, Telepathy was more of a demo and so Mind Maze might be some part of Telepathy, Telepathy, or something wholly different. I assume AGH was referring to Mind Maze as listed in a PR note as opposed to the ROM being found, though I'd be happy to be proven wrong. :-) -- //*================================================================++ || Russ Perry Jr 2175 S Tonne Dr #105 Arlington Hts IL 60005 || || 847-952-9729 slapdash@xxxxxxxxxxxx VIDEOGAME COLLECTOR! || ++================================================================*// -- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
