Seeking information on Trevor Hall (Twin Kingdom Valley)

#1 Post by thomsi »

Hello all,

I’m hoping someone here may be able to help, or perhaps share a recollection.

I’m currently researching early British adventure games and am looking for information about Trevor Hall, the creator of Twin Kingdom Valley.

I’m particularly interested in:

Any background information on Trevor Hall

Whether he went on to other work in games or computing

Any interviews, articles, letters, or contemporary mentions

Personal recollections from anyone who may have corresponded with him

This research forms part of a non-commercial preservation and documentation effort, focused on recording and crediting the people behind classic adventure games. I’m not seeking private contact details — even general pointers or anecdotal information would be greatly appreciated.

Twin Kingdom Valley was a remarkably atmospheric and ambitious game for its time, and it would be good to ensure its creator is properly represented in the historical record.

Many thanks for reading,
Simon

I'm fairly sure I've pointed you in the direction of The Classic Adventurer on another forum, which includes a full interview with Trevor in issue 1.

CASA's (slightly older) interviews with Trevor are here...
