REM ** THE USER'S MEMORIES **
I first read about it on Pixel's October 1989 issue which had a Special Review of the game.
I used to play it a lot on my Amiga, for which the game was a great, as it was on all platforms.
I hadn't played the coin-op until 1998 when I finally came across it at an arcade. That's when I first noticed that the on-screen map was missing from the conversions (with the exception of the arcade-perfect FM Towns and the almost perfect X68000).
