Also worth of note is that gameplay has some similarities to Sid Meier's ''[[Pirates!]]'' which was released two years later. So one could certainly speculate whether ''The Wild Bunch'' was an (unacknowledged) influence on ''Pirates!''. Certainly in the case of ''Pirates!'', there is not much discussion e.g. on Wikipedia where the whole RPG/arcade/choose-your-own-adventure concept came from. That said, ''Pirates!'', while using the same underlying concept in many ways, has far more polished gameplay. ''The Wild Bunch'' does not rise to the same heights creatively.
Finally, it's worth pointing out that the game is programmed entirely in Locomotive BASIC! In fact it's so large that normally it only works on a 464 because on a 664/6128 the AMSDOS ROM call block occupies so much RAM the program no longer fits. On However on CPC-Power there is a 6128 version by Kukulcan too.
