OsWALD, also known as OsWALD Of The Ice Floes,[1] is a 1988 Danish computer game for Amiga and Commodore 64. The game was designed by Ivan Sølvason for use as a game controlled over a push-button telephone, for Danish TV2's Friday night prime time program Eleva2ren. The game sold well in Denmark due to the exposure in Eleva2ren.[2]

Sølvason later designed Hugo the TV Troll, also for Eleva2ren and using the same push-button telephone concept.

Legacy[edit]

A new version of the game named Super OsWALD, with a two-player mode, was created for Eleva2ren in 1989.[2]
