Description
An arcade space trading game by Willow Computing, 1984, read from the board’s ROMs.
Provenance
Bought as part of a box of disks at an estate sale and donated anonymously. The window labels had peeled and the EPROMs had been exposed to light, so each was read many times. Independent reads agree bit for bit.
