The Ring of the Inka - Sir Clive Edition is a text-based adventure game set in the rich historical backdrop of South America. Players embark on a journey as stowaways from England, drifting towards the west coast of South America in search of a legendary Inka treasure—a golden ring of immense value. The narrative is filled with challenges, including encounters with fierce animals and palace guardians, while also requiring players to forge alliances with native tribes.
This Sir Clive Memorial Edition introduces several enhancements, including bug fixes and new features. The edition adds magical teleportation abilities to the ring and increases the difficulty of palace guards, although players can now defend themselves. Additionally, the game includes an illustrated PDF map to aid players, though it reduces the game's difficulty.
The game was revamped for the comp.sys.sinclair Crap Gaming Competition 2021, featuring a context-sensitive HELP system for beginners, object examination, and a DEBUG command for advanced play. The game is optimized to fit on a real cartridge using the ZX0 compression algorithm, showcasing a blend of nostalgia and modern enhancements.
Developed by Volker Bartheld and Michael Wiedmer, the game utilizes Sinclair BASIC on a 48K Spectrum, avoiding machine code except for some advanced routines. The game's design emphasizes readability and execution speed, offering a unique experience of classic adventure gaming on the ZX Spectrum platform.
