The Thompson Twins Adventure
''The Thompson Twins Adventure'' is a 1984 graphic adventure game that was distributed by ''Computer and Video Games'' magazine as a promotional〔 7" flexi disc〔 "freebie" along with its October 1984 issue (Issue 36). The game is based on the Thompson Twins single "Doctor! Doctor!", and features the Thompson Twins band members as the protagonists. The unusual storage format of the game showcases an experimental technique pioneered by the London-based Flexi Records label, and places the game alongside a small handful of other games distributed on grooved disks. This format never became established and ''The Thompson Twins Adventure'' is today valued more for its nostalgic and artifactual value than for its ludological aspects which have been uniformly panned by critics.
==Plot==
Based on the Thompson Twins' 1984 "Doctor! Doctor!" single, the plot of ''The Thompson Twins Adventure'' revolves around the efforts of the three Thompson Twins members (Tom Bailey, Alannah Currie, and Joe Leeway) to gather ingredients for the concoction of the titular doctor's potion. The game opens with the Thompson Twins at a beach location.〔 From there they must travel through several areas including a forest and a cavern to search for ingredients for the doctor's potion.〔 When they have collected all ingredients and located the doctor, the doctor creates his potion and the game ends.
The nature of the doctor's potion was the secret answer to a competition launched concurrently with the game's release by ''Computer and Video Games''.〔 The contest ran for one month (ending on 16 November 1984〔) during which time contestants were intended to gather and examine clues by listening to the "Doctor! Doctor!" single (a selection of which was included on the flexi disc), listening to the game's special introduction message recorded on the same disc by the Thompson Twins, and playing through the game.〔〔〔 When the identity of the potion was discovered, contestants were supposed to send in their answers to ''Computer and Video Games''. The first correct answer would win the grand prize: free tickets to an upcoming Thompson Twins concert with the opportunity to meet the musicians backstage afterward.〔〔 Prizes would also be awarded to ten runner-ups.〔〔 Due to difficulties in the creation of the Commodore 64 version of the game, the contest deadline was extended by an extra month (i.e. to December 1984) for Commodore 64 users.〔 The winner of the Spectrum competition was announced as Alison Wagstaf in the magazine's January 1985 issue (Issue 39).〔 The winner of the Commodore 64 version of the contest would get tickets to and backstage access at a later concert.〔
