Retro Gamer 34 - The Making of... Dungeon Master

Has anyone seen the latest issue (34) of Retro Gamer magazine. This is a UK based magazine dedicated to all the old classic games from the 80's and 90's: http://www.retrogamer.net/

There is a four page 'Making of' feature about Dungeon Master and a damn good read it is too. Seems to be very well researched and has plenty of information not featured in EDGE Magazines' Dungeon Master article.

Its basically an interview with Doug Bell, who tells the story of the beginning of his company and how his game 'Crystal Dragon' eventually became 'Dungeon Master'. The article features scans from the Dungeon Master Encyclopedia and the website and Christophe get a mention as well. Top stuff!

Loads of very interesting info about DM and well worth buying the magazine just for that one article! :)
