> it will be buried somewhere in Arizona desert [LINK] which then lead into the Hareraiser game which is unofficially the officially worse computer “game” to ever be created. For more info about the affair in video form there is this talk from the Norwich Game Festival a few years back [VIDEO]
Ashens has a nice presentation on the video game version of "Masquerade": [VIDEO] (spoilers ahead!)
