Story: Harrod's VIP


The Novagen cabinet held this curious sentence in the game credits: "AND ALSO REGARDS TO HARRODS' ANONYMOUS V I P"

When asked if he remembered what this was about, Bruce Jordan's reaction was immediate ;)

Bruce Jordan (10th December 2003):
"As if I could forget: this relates to Mercenary being sold through Harrods. As with all of our releases, Damocles appeared 'late' relative to the pre-publicity and prior to release we had the buyer from Harrods phone to enquire on the release date for a particular wealthy American customer* (...). The same buyer told us, when chasing Damocles, that we had a 'Prince of the Realm' fan of Mercenary, which we assumed at that time was Charles."

So! If anyone knows how to ask Charles, please do and let us know ;)
