I remember an ancient thread about this. I have a Dark Tower at home,
much fun. What I'm wondering is if there's a decent, detailed, write-up
of how the game plays. I mean flow-chart/programming-spec-level of detail.
Enough to, say, implement the game in Javascript or some such (for the day
when my Tower dies).
Obviously, a dump of the internal ROM would be an excellent starting point,
but I wasn't aware you could dump the TMS1000. If that's possible, there
are several games of the era that could be effectively emulated.
