I was playing through the Scott Adam's adventures... and then wanted to see the graphic versions of these which came out later. There are graphic versions for Applle II, Atari 8-bit, Commodore 64, Spectrum ZX... and then 3 ports to Japanese systems, the FM-7, NEC PC-8801 and PC-9801.

Couldn't find the FM-7 version, but did locate the PC-8801 and PC-9801 versions. Got them working in emulation and then was faced with the fact that everything was in Japanese. Not only the text, but the input system. That's a bit of a challenge. I knew how to solve the game, if I could only put in the commands somehow. But I couldn't even figure out how to GO EAST, or CLIMB TREE on the first screen.

Thus, I embarked on a sort of self-taught crash course in Japanese. Learned Katakana symbols and through the magic of google, and wikipedia began to be able to translate what was on screen. It then became a game of guess the "verb" and "noun" that would work. I could not find ANY walkthrough or solution guide online... but did get help twice from a YouTuber who had posted some gameplay of PC-8801 adventureland.

Here I finally get to present a complete walkthrough of the BEST graphical version anywhere of SAGA #1 - Adventureland. The system had higher resolution than others of its day. So struggling through to solve this, my first Japanese adventure ever... was worth it.

Hope you enjoy the graphics, and the emulation... even if you don't yet read Japanese.
