Game Story
I was newly settled in Cedar Lake and finally had room for games again. This machine was working and the price was right. It also gave me an opportunity to me Copious.
The game is working, but the artwork is beat. I will search for reproduction and replacements as cash on hand permits.
Cash on hand did not permit and I sold this unit.
