Introduction
Welcome to The Bird Sanctuary, a refuge for memories of Telecomsoft, better known in the UK and Europe during the 1980s by the publishing labels Firebird, Rainbird and Silverbird. The Bird Sanctuary has been compiled, written and contributed to by ex-Telecomsoft staff and developers, along with some help from Joe public. <More...>
Latest news
Thursday 29th May 2008
May is always an anniversary of some kind for The Bird Sanctuary or Telecomsoft. It's now an unbelievable 20 years since I started working for the company, it's 19 years since Firebird and Rainbird were sold by BT and it's 6 years since this website first went live!
It's a few small updates this time around, expanding the memories of a long-since 'lost' Rainbird RPG and adding some excellent artwork to the story behind another Rainbird title:
Rainbird - Broadsword (unreleased), Weird Dreams
The Magnetic Scrolls Chronicles website has recently moved to a new server and a new address. Have a look at http://www.mschronicles.com when you can.
Other Telecomsoft-related news includes word of an unofficial C64 conversion of The Wild Bunch might be on its way, almost 24 years after the original was released for the Spectrum.
