Description

Guide Dave through ten terrifying levels as he tries to reclaim his trophies from a deserted pirate's hideout! This is a standard platform run and jump game although with only 10 levels it's meant to be more difficult than the usual.

This game is in 16-color double-res mode on the Apple II and is essentially the same as the original Apple II hi-res version titled "Dangerous Dave in the Deserted Pirate's Hideout".

My first ever colour game on PC. Aa such, I may be a little bit biased when I say that this game still holds up. With varied puzzles, fun secrets, actual skill factor, and those surprisingly effective noises which somehow get me leaning in crazy directions and hammering keys despite being two notes. Would absolutely recommend this game for anyone who needs to sink into something for a while.
