I can't think of it and I have been googling it endlessly.
I dont remember too much of it, I was very young in the 90's, around '96 I remember playing it.
It was a puzzle game with 16 bit graphics, featuring primarily text, but also images. It was not Dragon Court btw (which is still up...good loooord)
It featured a setting from Greek mythology, and I vaguely remember images (possibly an image taken in real life by a camera) of a Minotaur, and then some game art (digitally drawn this time) of a hallway with torches.
The most vivid scene I remember is this scenario where you see an image of a man sitting in a trireme and he's holding a bird and in the background are the cliffs, an allusion to the famous scene from Greek mythology featuring Jason and the Argonauts.
The trick was, you'd throw the bird (I'm not sure if was a text command or mouse oriented, don't remember) and then you'd execute the command to send the trireme rowing through the cliffs, and you'd get a randomly generated response, like "You made it!" or "Your boat was smashed apart, try again!"
Anyone have any ideas? It was not the Return of Heracles, that was in the 80s, this was definitely an early 90's puzzle game.
