- "You are setting forth into another place, another time, another world" said Treguard, the Dungeon Master. "And what makes you think that you four mere mortals will succeed in the Quest, when so many others have failed?"
- I understood at that exact moment that our mission that we had planned so light-heartedly, just a few days before, was going to take all our endurance, all our collective skill, and, most of all a depth of courage, that I wasn't sure we possessed." The introduction to the game.

[edit] Details
Knightmare is based on the CITV TV show of the same name, where a group of 4 children attempt to complete a quest. The format of the game differs from the TV show in that the view is in first person, in the TV show the main player had to wear a helmet to blind them to their surroundings. Also, even taking into account the limitations of the computer systems, the game didn't resemble the TV show that much. Knightmare was written by Tony Crowther and published by Mindscape International Ltd.
