Rather, it was a review of the computer game, which was made for the TRS-80, and since I never owned a TRS-80, that review in a computer magazine was my sole exposure to the game. Alas, I am unable to find any information on the game itself, and it would be a miracle if I could find the actual magazine (especially since I can’t even remember its title). If anyone reading this has any information on Death Maze 5000 or can point the way, please comment or contact me at the following e-mail address: chariot AT spiralcastle DOT com.

If it helps in the quest, the magazine also had a review of a Rock Paper Scissors game that depicted a world in which all three were apparently living species, and the code for a first-person spaceship combat game called “Space Potatoes.”
