Synopsis

Plot

You are a police detective given the job of outsmarting and catching "The Boss" in his part of town.

Notes

This adventure was originally published for the TRS-80 CoCo in Coco-Cassette (a cassette-based magazine), issue 25, July 1984, instructions on p. 1 of the covering leaflet.

The Coco-Cassette back catalogue was later sold to Microdeal and the adventure was subsequently re-published as a type-in game for the Dragon 32/64 & TRS-80 CoCo in The Cuthbert Chronicle (Microdeal's own preview/review magazine), vol. 1, no. 4, undated (about May 1985). Anyone who did not want to type in the game could instead buy it direct from Microdeal's mail order arm, Micromail.

Jim Gerrie has created a version of the game for the TRS-80 MC-10.

The location descriptions contain American spellings so it is likely that the game was originally written for the CoCo and may pre-date the Microdeal copyright year (1985) that appears in the listing.
