The Castle Games Domain was the first website I
played online multi-player games and where I learnt about Internet
chatting. I played this for about 1 year and I had the usernames of
fraserk and Zigzag21, if anyone remembers me. The idea of Zigzag21
name was from an option in
Resarf demo.
Yahoo bought Castle
Games Domain from
BTOpenworld in 2004, which brought the end of the
site. Other names for this website where GD, CGD, Castle GamesDomain and
The Castle.
On this there was games like Quad Link, Treasure Crypt,
Cyber Wars, Battle Thingz and some other games. The game I played
the most was Treasure Crypt. During the time playing Treasure
Crypt I worked my way up to Grand Master with a score around
2,600.
I used to think this was a game I could program in
Turbo Pascal, apart from the graphics. After the CGD closed
down, my ex-girlfriend Nina gave me the idea of programming Treasure
Crypt. The game is now half finished and I still haven't got around
to finishing it.
Screenshots
I'm unable to find any Treasure Crypt's
screenshots of the actual game on the internet. If anyone has
other screenshots from CGD, especially Crypt, send me an
email. This would help me to develop the
game. The following pictures are from the Crypt clone.
I do have some pictures from CGD. Check these
pictures, it will bring you back some memories. I have reconstructed the
first 2 pictures from bits of graphics from the original game. The
map, the items table and the 'Tiles Left' text are not in the
picture.

The 'Video' link is a video recording
of Treasure Crypt. If the game doesn't run for you or its too fast,
you can get to see what Crypt was like. The file takes around 10
mins to download on a 1Mb Broadband and 4 hours on a 56k modem. Buy
a DVD disc with a higher quality
Treasure Crypt video.
I have not finished programming Treasure Crypt. The
game uses the keyboard for the controls and not the joystick or mouse.
