Description
A homemade puzzle game for the ZX Spectrum, written by Marcus Farah in 1985.
Provenance
Bought as part of a box of disks at an estate sale and donated anonymously. The tape had stretched near its start; the first blocks were repaired by hand from the sampled signal. All of the work survives. The repairs are listed in the record’s damage map.
