T'was a Time of Dread - date issue

#1 Post by Alastair »

This is one of two questions posed by Smartgenes, if anyone (Strident?) can clarify the matter then please do so below.


I noticed what looks like a mistake on CASA:
T'was a Time of Dread (https://solutionarchive.com/game/id%2C5 ... Dread.html) is listed as 1991, but the 2nd game of the Silent Song trilogy is listed as 1992 so it doesn't make much sense.

Yes, the 1991 date is a mistake (it should be 1992) but sadly, like any changes to entries at the moment, it can't be updated without losing other data from the entry. The Unborn One is also incorrect, as that should have a 1991 date.

Technically I think all the games in that series were actually produced in 1991, but John only released Time of Dread in January 1992 (going on the Zenobi newsletters and his loading screen).
