Kim Justice | WARAJEVO: The ZX Spectrum Emulator That Gave People Hope | Kim Justice @Kim_Justice | Uploaded January 2024 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Warajevo is a Speccy emulator with an incredible story -- it was made in horrendous conditions by two soldiers during the Siege of Sarajevo. Despite those conditions and with almost no resources, they made one of the best Spectrum emulators available -- and the first emulator I ever properly used.
