Fairlight (video game)

Fairlight is an isometric projection arcade adventure video game developed by Bo Jangeborg and Jack Wilkes and released in 1985 on Softek's The Edge label.

[6] Jack Wilkes contributed art assets towards the game, including enemy sprites and the title screen.

The player controls an adventurer named Isvar, on his quest to find the Book of Light to escape from Castle Avars which is displayed in an isometric view.

The game was well received critically and commercially, selling over 50,000 copies[citation needed] and reaching the number one position on the ZX Spectrum charts.

[6] Continuing legal disputes led to the sequel, Fairlight II, being released without Jangeborg's approval and in an unfinished state with a number of bugs, one of which meant the game could not be completed.
