A full playthrough of the 1985 MSX cassette game "Outroyd" by Magical Zoo/Stratford Computer-Center Corporation. Recorded from actual MSX hardware with a very dodgy capture device (thus the middling video quality and framerate), though the version of the game played here is a ROM conversion of the original cassette tape, which is why it's missing the title screen and title music (sorry!).

This is a Japanese-developed game, despite the non-Japanese developer/publisher name and the all-English gameplay. As such, most information on how to play this game can be found in Japanese only, or is only sparsely available. To that end, I've prepared an English-language guide, which gives full instructions on how to play the game, what your goal is, what the story is, what all of the items do, what all of the tiles mean, etc. You can download this guide here:

(Temporary link to an early PDF conversion. I'm hoping to find someone who can help me make this a non-page-delineated file and offer it a permanent home somewhere, so if that's you, please leave me a comment!)

Additionally, if you enable CC via the settings for this video, you'll be able to see subtitled commentary spanning the entire playthrough, explaining what I'm doing and why, giving information about what each item I acquire is used for, etc.

If you're looking to play the game, please do feel free to avail yourself of either the guide (for a more spoiler-free experience), this subtitled video (for more of a full walkthrough experience), or both.

I hope you enjoy this game as much as I did, and I hope you find the guide and/or this video useful to that end!
