Planned release date(s): Autumn 1994[8], 1995

A Sega Mega Drive version was at one point in development, having been ported by Reflections Interactive for Psygnosis. Psygnosis dropped the game in mid-1994[9] leaving the project without a publisher. It was then taken back by Flair Software and Titus Interactive, only to be cancelled entirely. Working titles appear to have been Castle Game and Top Hat.
