Midnight Descent

Northwind Software, 1991. Game for a handheld console.

Description

A space trading game for a handheld console, published by Northwind Software in 1991.

Provenance

Transferred from the backlog of unread media at a partner archive. The window labels had peeled and the EPROMs had been exposed to light, so each was read many times. Most of the work survives, but some files are lost. The damage map lists them.
