The AI made a 4 player Wizard of Wor for my Atari 800

Thanks to the AI he has been working on a 4 player version of Wizard of Wor for the Atari 800 that uses all 4 joystick ports, so far in an emulator, with a real Atari test to come. He says he can now play his favorite games with fun options that never existed before.

How it works

  1. Works with AI on a Wizard of Wor mod
  2. The game now runs as a 4 player version using all 4 joystick ports in an emulator
  3. He plans to try it on a real Atari later

Why it’s worth knowing

A 4 player version of a 1980s game that was never made now exists because he asked the AI to build it.
