Historical Notes

We previously credited Tom Szafransky as designer. John Osborne told us he was the sole designer. While domestic games had speech, there are exported games which did not. An owner from France told us his game has the MA-55 early System 80 sound board (no speech). We don't know if all games intended for export lacked speech.
