CHEAT MODE, unlimited lives, cartridge versions - in the sequence $"DE B8 1B F0 13" change the one byte $DE to become $BD , byte found at offset $015A in the 1984 16K cartridge, or, offset $224A in the 32K (24K really) 1988 XEGS cartridge. For one and two players.

It's amazing how much mileage Jack Tramiel got out of dumping everything in the Atari warehouses. Repackaging old machines and selling for cheap - Atari somehow managed to limp along for half a decade on this strategy. Ah, well, at least the 5200 version of Crystal Castles was finally released on cart.
