Blackwyche is an action-adventure game developed and published by Ultimate Play the Game, sequel to Entombed and the third installment in the Pendragon series, released in 1985 exclusively in Europe for Commodore 64. The game is presented in a 3D isometric format, and its setting and graphics were heavily inspired by real-life HMS Victory and the surrounding naval city of Portsmouth. It was followed by the final installment to the series later that year, Dragon Skulle.
