Retro Gamer Magazine said there was only one known copy of this game https://www.retrogamer.net/top_10/top-t ... -20-games/, but I just snagged a copy on eBay, so there are at least two now. This is an awesome VIC-20 game, especially since it is from 1983. I would highly recommend downloading a copy and playing it on you VIC.

Incredible find . Please, tell us more - and provide scans! The game is also downloadable here: https://www.vic-20.it/wp-content/uploads/KeyQuest.prg - and it's a very good game indeed.

Re: Key Quest Cartridge
How on earth did I miss seeing this?! Wow, so a box? And so cheap as well, was this a BIN? Probably explains how I missed it if it got listed and sold in between my daily eBay checks. Can I get a proper scan of the front and back of the box for GB20? The list of games there is useful because a couple mentioned are still unaccounted for.ka20 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 15, 2021 11:21 am Retro Gamer Magazine said there was only one known copy of this game https://www.retrogamer.net/top_10/top-t ... -20-games/, but I just snagged a copy on eBay, so there are at least two now.

But no manual I see. I've got cart and manual, just missing the box heh. It's my dump of the cart that's online too.
I wrote that RG article btw, and that was almost 15 years ago (!). Since then 2-3 other copies has appeared so yours is like the fifth on the block heh. Still very very rare though.
