What is the game in "Big" - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Okay, I was just doing my everyday stuff when this question came to me out of nowhere. Is the game that kid in "Big" plays on his computer a real game? Something with a wizard, I think. I remember from the movie the game has like 2 colors, it is so old. Hmm, wondering things like this, perhaps I have too much time on my hands?

I always figured it was a fake game. Then again everytime I watch I wonder about that glad I'm not alone.

I don't know.. I remember games like that and the text based ones were always fun to play..

I did always want one of those Zoltar machines though!

I don't think I've ever seen a "Zoltar" game, but I've seen so many other games JUST like it that I wouldn't be suprised if it were real. I haven't seen anything online that pointed to them existing or not, but I did find this interesting link:

It's na NVidia demo that uses Zoltar. Heh.
