Welcome back, everyone! In today’s video, we are diving into my latest cassette haul from the Vintage Computer Festival. I picked up three absolute classic 8-bit titles: Blue Max, Fort Apocalypse, and the legendary Chuck Benton Frogger by Sierra Online.

But things didn't go as planned. After discovering a couple of these tapes were actually Atari versions (listen to that tape head audio difference!), I set my sights on Frogger. What followed was a massive headache involving strange question mark prompts, obfuscated basic code, and a wildly confident Claude AI insisting that Sierra botched the tape straight from the factory in 1981.

Stick around to see how the mystery was solved in a way that artificial intelligence couldn't.
