The Secret of Bastow Manor is a Template:Vgy graphical adventure game for the Commodore VIC-20 and Commodore 64 home computers. The Commodore 64 version is formally titled The Secret of Bastow Manor 64 as per the tradition at the time to distinguish C64 titles by addition of the 64 moniker.

The Secret of Bastow Manor is notable for being an early video game title on these platforms and for being a pioneer in 8-bit adventure games. The graphics were done using PETSCII characters[3] and the programming code used was BASIC.[4]
