Hello!

I am looking for the title of a game that I have played in the late 80's.
Hopefully this will get seen amongst the porn! =)

Here is the basics of what I remember about it:

You are a prisoner in a camp. Basically every "day" you have to walk around
with a group, in a line, go to your meals on time, attend role call on time,
sleep when you're supposed to, and such.

You can wonder off, but when one of those duties comes up, and you're not
there, you get searched down. If you get caught, you get put into solitary
confinement, then are released, and your flag is lowered. If your flag is
lowered all the way, you lose control of your man, and basically the game is
over!

I don't remember much to the area. The buildings surruounded one side and
the prisoner's houses where in the middle. Down at the bottome there was a
gate. I got as far as obtaining wire cutters but got caught by a dog.
Apparently dogs can catch you before an enemy gets to you.

It was a Dos game.

This has always been coming back to me for years and I can never remember or
find out what the name is.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know the name of it, but I'd love to know too if you find out the
name.

The game was titled 'The Great Escape', I had it on the c64. It was a WWII
game, there was a movie of the same name but dunno if it is related.
Anyways, here is a link with more information and a link you can download
the game from, enjoy :)
