BBC version of the classic Ultimate Play The Game title.

The first release on the Beeb of an Ultimate title, it came out at the start of the company's use of the distinctive large black box, so while Spectrum owners only had a tiny cassette case for Jetpac and Atic Atac, BBC owners had this luxury for both releases.

The game itself uses the computer's low res mode, and as such it looks very different from the Spectrum and Vic 20 ones.

It is also the only BBC Ultimate release to offer the option of a joystick.
