So many memories.. I remember this game from 85 or 86 when i was 10 years old. MSX was the best.

Oh and the "fly through things in space " is quite similar to X-Wing. So I guess the LA's ideas weren't all that original. :)

Hmm have to wonder did the makers of Loom play this one. The "repeat the notes" idea and the visual part of it has similarities (in loom the staff lights up)

What a game! Still remember finishing all of it on my own twice as a ten year old...

I have no idea what is going on in this game, but I like it!

I never seen this version before. I'm like a lot of folks that played this on the C64. Still a great game but I do like the sound better on the C64... but thats just me.

I should look this up for the MSX sometime. Emulation is awesome. :)

Graphics seem better on MSX but the C64 version have better sound.
