Fortress of Narzod

Does Fortress of Narzod run on R36S?

Yes. Vectrex games are rated Perfect on the R36S (RK3326): they generally run at full speed.

Full-speed on all R36 models. Emulators can draw the original screen overlays, which several games effectively require to be readable.

Made for a 4:3 TV, so it fills the 3.5-inch screen of the R36S, R36 Pro and R36H. On the 4-inch square screen (R36S Plus, R36 Max, R36S Ultra) it shows with bars at the top and bottom.

Ratings are estimates for the whole Vectrex library on the RK3326 chip, not a test of this one title. Compare R36 models
