Sunken Arena

Gabriel Banerjee, 1980. Game for arcade cabinets.

Description

An arcade maze game by Gabriel Banerjee, 1980, read from the board’s ROMs.

Provenance

Sent to Lazarus by post, with a note asking whether anything could be saved. The window labels had peeled and the EPROMs had been exposed to light, so each was read many times. The image matches a checksum published by the original distributor.
