Well again, just don't make it impossible to guess either

Since you won round 1, I guess you can open the 2nd round

Ok i know i said i would sit this round out but seen as you asked nicely here is a simple one to get things started

Damn, you both could have waited for me befoer starting a new round !

Yep music was very nice on that well known American 8bit system (trying not to mention the system as the game is mostly known on that one lol) but the Amstrad Cpc 464 version and the ZXspectrums music is terrible (because they had no music lol) not sure about the Atari 8bit versions though not got round to trying them.

Well, I wanted to play again, and Marko sure seemed enthusiast to play again, so I thought, eh, why not now

I had the Atari version in mind. The other ones sounded eeeeh, but the PoKEY chip did it very well.
Helps knowing it's probably from the best musician for this platform too

Ok so this game was probably the second ever game i played after jetpac. The game had a number of firsts that had never been done before. It was available on a number of systems all under the same name except on the Amstrad CPC 464 where its main character was replaced and the name of the game was changed. I will accept any of the 2 names as an answer.

That looks like ZX Spectrum to me. No idea what game, however.

[EDIT] Okay I found it! After looking at a list of ZX Spectrum game, I stumbled on a game with 2 names, turns out it is the same image!

You are right the game was also called Roland in the caves. The game was the first ever to have cut scenes and was the first ever game to be made in Spain.
