Description
An arcade space trading game by Arjun Brandt, 1998, read from the board’s ROMs.
Provenance
Donated with the machine it was used on. The window labels had peeled and the EPROMs had been exposed to light, so each was read many times. All files were recovered; 12 damaged sectors were rebuilt from redundant data.
