I may be a little off on the details but maybe you can help LOL... I've been googling for a while and can't find it LOL You go through a dungeon or castle and the walls are stone grey and so is the flooring, there are keys you have to find to get out and if you go into a room where guards are protecting something they will chase you... I think they wore red and had swords? not sure... you also can walk over skeletons of dead 'travelers' to get their items like guns and swords... if you went into a room near or with a sloth (not Sloth from the Goonies lol) the actual animal, there would be this sound that played to let you know that one was near... also there were spiders that would flash I believe... I know I sound crazy but I need to find this game before I drive everyone nuts HAHAHA Ok so there is this game, I believe it was Commodore 64… I may be a little off on the details but maybe you can help LOL… I’ve been googling for a while and can’t find it LOL

I've been working on mine for a while now and many of those are on my list of greatest games as well. At least two of them are on my list of worst games, haha. Great list, Frank!
