A downloadable game

The Prisoner was one of the first adventures we did back in 2013 and, to celebrate the decade since its launch, we present this new version, fixed, expanded, with graphics and music in-game. In addition, we have added the documentation in the same file, we have included the Catalan version and we present everything in two formats, D64 disk and CRT cartridge. And as we did then, we continue to insist on the validity of its plot and that you should give it a chance to see a risky and premonitory series in all aspects.

The history: The plot puts us in the shoes of a British secret service agent who, after resigning from his position, is put to sleep and transferred to a mysterious Village. There he will find himself a prisoner, without understanding who has taken him there and where they will try by all means to discover the reason for his resignation. Our protagonist, number 6 in The Village, will try by all means to escape from it and find out who number 1 is.

Versions:

This new version has 3 different editions. Apart from including all the music within the same game and also having graphics, other small changes have been made:

In the Spanish version, minor spelling errors have been fixed, some synonyms and descriptions that could be improved have been added. Some text has been shortened so that it would look better with the graphics and thus save a little memory.
The English version has been kept as is. The work that David Stimpson did in the translation, maintaining the language of the original series, is perfect and has not been touched.
The Catalan version is new and we have added it to the rest of the versions.
We have created a CRT that includes all 3 versions and extra graphics.

The TV Show: Produced by ITV and filmed between 1967-68, it was the spiritual sequel to Danger Man and consists of a total of 17 chapters. It was as pioneering as it was misunderstood and its ending left unanswered questions causing doubts and indignation on the part of viewers. The series can only be seen in English and South American and in 2009 a revision was made, changing certain aspects that did not convince either former followers of the series or critics in general. Due to the lack of success of this new version, Christopher Nolan refused to make the film version of it in 2009 and in 2016, Ridley Scott was also offered to make it, waiting for the perfect script to get behind the camera and direct it.

How it works:

To move, use the cardinal points N, S, E, W and UP and DOWN.
EXAMINE or EX is used to see something or someone specific.
The parser works with 2 words, VERB + SUBJECT. For example: TAKE JACKET.
LOOK or R is used to get an overview of the location.
HELP shows us instructions similar to these.
INFO shows us the credits of the game.
The most common actions are: PICK, TALK, LEAVE, GO, USE, EXAMINE, GIVE, DIG, RAISE, DOWN, PUSH, PULL, CUT...

Tips:

Watch at least the first episode of the series. You will enjoy the game much more and you will feel closer to our character.
Don't forget to examine everything and talk to the people you meet.
Make yourself a map. You will orient yourself and position yourself better in the game.
