ADDITIONAL COMMENTS

This odd game was found on one of the thousands of random disks Atari got rid of that were later sold as blanks by the likes of Best Electronics or B & C Computervisions. Nothing is known about the title other than "Jack" is suspected to be Jack Tramiel. The line "Come on Helen" when you roll the dice lends credence to that as Helen is the name of Jack's wife.
For authenticity's sake, we are including the original disk on which the game was found but note that it will NOT autoboot and you won't see the directory either due to the format. The extracted BASIC file itself works just fine, though.
If you happen to know more about this piece of software, please feel free to leave a comment or send us an e-mail!
Many thanks to John Hardie for dumping this program!
