Ok, I know this is going to be vague as all get out. I can just hope that some doper someplace has knowledge that they're willing to share.
When I was a teenager, and playing arcade games fairly regularly, I once played this arcade game that was complex, yet interesting. All I can remember of it is that the graphics were in the same cartoony style of the Dragon's Lair game. It had a keyboard, and an instruction book that you had to read to understand enough to play. (which is why I'm not surprised it wasn't very popular, or around for a long time) They keyboard was a molded plastic one, inserted into the console front. I think it also had a joystick, but not certain. About the only thing I remember of the game play was that at the beginning, you had a magic scroll that you put in a pouch, and used a few moments later. (game was too complicated for me, always died).
That's all I remember, I think the time frame would have been from about 1983 to 1987 or so. It may have been a little earlier, but no later than that. Any help would be appreciated.
