STIL:

COMMENT: "This game was based on the well known board game. Tune 2 is a weird victory ditty that was composed by my brother. Tune 3 I think is the highscore music and tune 4 is the ingame music, just a 2 channel ambient track which left 1 channel for sfx. Tune 5 seems to be corrupt and out of sync for some reason but was meant to be used for action parts of the game." (MC)
COMMENT: On the original tape and disk, 6 bytes are corrupt, causing the arpeggio to fall out of sync at 0:05 like Mark says. This rip replaces them by 6 bytes that are repeated before and after.
