Rumoured for 33 years, we have recovered an advanced and playable preview of Kevin Keegan's Player Manager for PC (DOS). Including lots of graphical assets, and remains of the lost Amiga version (with hope that too could be saved):

Not to be confused with the released Trilogy - this Legacy of the Necromancer game was a different, dungeon-crawler RPG from Virgin & Westwood for Amiga/MS-DOS back in 1992. Sadly it was never to see the light of day:

Today we're releasing a long lost proto of Tiny Troops for PC DOS - due for release in 1995 by Mindscape. Also adding a staggering 32 prototype builds from 1993-1994, when the game was originally known as Bugs. Sadly the CD32 version is still at large.
