Buckaroo Banzai Plus/4Another mystery in the Commodore Plus/4 software's dark history has been finally unveiled!
Buckaroo Banzai Plus4, one of the Scott Adams classic adventures lied here all this years, on the B-side of its C64 version, released by Adventure International, and nothing let anybody imagine it was right there.

After the retrieval of The Sorcerer of Claymorgue Castle +4, Gaia and Csabo spent some time to investigate several similar titles, till someone found a little evidence in this adventure game, as weird text that appears when you try to load C64 version on a Plus/4 emulator.
The search for that B-side has been really hard, but Luca's luck allows him to meet Jerry Kurtz on a dedicated forum. Jerry has been involved in the abitious C64 Preservation Project, just providing a backup and various material of this game. Moreover, he's been so kind to give us both sides'.g64 and .d64 disk images, covers, manual and diskette picture.
Thanks to Jerry, one of the most hidden gems ever has been found, sincere thanks bud!

Another has fallen, go for the next one!
