|  New Hungarian Game Covers
      Bear(tm) send us an incredible pack of 7 covers (the 7th being the recently added one for Psylon). They are all for Hungarian games. Let's see the list:
- Abraka-Dabra, an educational game based on the books of Professor Dienes. Lacus recently recovered the TAP image for this game, this cover makes things complete.
- Championship Wrestling: the cover for the Hungarian release. Unlike the English one, this does have a proper manual included with it, featuring some funny wrestler descriptions.
- Joe And The Seriff: an alternative (coloured) cover.
- Sakk Kezdőknek: the cover for the yellow C16 version.
- Ürvirág: this is an obscure game from Puhasoft, we didn't even know that it was commercially released. A very rare find!
- Viktor A Piktor: an action game similar to Wacky Painter.
There you have it, enjoy!

Very cool and rare covers! I recall I also had the C16 version of 'Starter Chess' back in the day... it's a pity I'd sold all my original Novotrade tapes to a second hand retailer in 1995  I had the cover for Dataturbo*15 for instance, though I think the cover only said 'Turbo*15'...! It was my very first turbo loader.

Does it also mean we should have two versions of this game, instead of one only?

Well, not sure what you mean, but the original C16 version did not run on the plus/4 well, due to not setting the character set address properly, so a "new" bugfixed version was released later (blue cover).

I live these covers too... For Viktor A Piktor, the author contacted us a long time ago and wrote that he might find a copy of the tape for the cover. I guess that never happened. But now we have it 
Luca, you mean for starter chess? I think only the covers are different, there's no Plus/4 specific version.
Edit: Oops, Gaia already replied, I stand corrected. Even in this case, we could have the same one record I think.
