Description

A shoot-’em-up for MS-DOS, released by Nimbussoft in 1996 and never reissued.

Provenance

Sent to Lazarus by post, with a note asking whether anything could be saved. The disks had been stored beside a loudspeaker, and one track on each was weak. All of the work survives. The repairs are listed in the record’s damage map.
