Special protected routines - converted 100% to TAP file.
No Manual.
Nothing on inlay_b.

Sometimes considered as a sequel of The Ultra: among the 101 levels, you will find again a remix of many The Ultra levels.
Also lots of references to many, many other games, songs, computers, history, TV shows...

Dominique P. found what happened with the loading routines: parts 4 and 5 have a program start byte at $3C value instead of the standard $24 (and bytes are coded with an EOR $94).
That means the TAP file could be done if all the parts are converted in a row from a big WAV file. If it had been done part by part, the parts 4 and 5 would not be considered as standard, hence not converted.

As a side effect, the TAP file can't be converted back to WAV with existing tools, so a WAV file version is available for users willing to load the game on a real machine.
