Is it still worth playing?

A 1980 action adventure for the Atari 2600, in which a square avatar explores an open kingdom of 30 rooms to recover the Enchanted Chalice. It was stolen by an evil magician and has to go back to the Golden Castle. Mazes, obstacles and enemies lie in and around the Golden, White and Black Castles. Three dragons guard the kingdom and attack, the yellow Yorgle, the green Grundle and the red Rhindle. A hostile bat roams freely too, carrying an item or a dragon and swapping what it carries, and it keeps flying even offscreen. Enemies that went on moving offscreen were new to console games then. A kingdom where things keep moving when you are not looking still makes the hunt for the chalice worth trying today.
