Talk:Time Traveler (1980 video game)

Incorrect spelling of the title
The correct title is spelled with ONE L. TraveLer. Hippo99 (talk) 04:00, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I wonder why it's spelled with one L on that screen, and two Ls everywhere else I've seen. BOZ (talk) 12:04, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Good question, BOZ. TraveLLer is the UK spelling while TraveLer is the US spelling. (American_and_British_English_spelling_differences) Maybe the British were tempted to put the second L? The original game (and its screen shots) bear only one L. In this light, Krell Software was a US (N.Y. based) enterprise. Hippo99 (talk) 13:38, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Do we have an image of the box cover or owner's manual to compare? I'm sure that would settle it conclusively. BOZ (talk) 14:15, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Of course that would do it... (besides the screen-shots and emulated game should have the same -or more- power). However, scanned covers or manuals of any version seem hard to come by... seemingly a not-so-popular game then. Hippo99 (talk) 22:15, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
 * One L. I found ads by Krell Software Corp. in 2 issues of Compute!:


 * October 1981, Issue #17, page 37.
 * December 1981, Issue #19, page 15.
