Some Astrocade News/Updates

In this short episode, we decided not to cover any updates, as very few were made since our last recording.

Introduction Notes

Hamurabi Notes

  • King Hamurabi by Richard Houser - "King Hamurabi," a Bally BASIC game appeared in Arcadian 2, no. 4 (Feb. 25, 1980): 32-33 and on the tape "Best of Arcadian - 1980." In this video, Dominic and I play a few games to help listeners of the Astrocast to better conceptualize how the game is played.
