I made a really quick video about Eye of the Beholder for Commodore 8-bits that dropped in November, 2022. (Sorry about the blurry cam - I was in an excited rush and didn't focus on production levels like I usually do in my haste.)
Anyway, in this video I demonstrate what - for me - is the ultimate way to play this incredible game. In fact, I'll say it. I think it is easily the greatest game ever made for the C128. And, in my opinion, the C128 is the best way to play it - rather than the much more common C64 - for several reasons.
- Number Pad, for movement
- 2Mhz Mode - huge increase in game responsiveness
- Ability to run two monitors, and the 2nd monitor can be in 80-column mode if you have the right gear.
- C128D (or, C128 + floppy drive for backups)
- 1351 Mouse (or equivalent)
- EasyFlash (or, potentially a KungFuFlash) for fast loading and saving to a single slot
- 1702 or equivalent (is there an equivalent?) 40-col capable CRT for game screen
- 1902A or equivalent 80-col capable CRT for auto-map screen
