A lost piece of gaming history, rediscovered. In 1991, the late, legendary programmer Chris Oberth designed Xcavator for the NES. It was shopped to publishers across the country but never found a home. The original source code sat with Chris' family for decades until @GameHistoryOrg discovered it and brought it back to life with the help of @MegaCatStudios. Now, you can own a piece of history. 100% of profits from purchases of Xcavator 2025 support the Video Game History Foundation's preservation work, to help more projects like this see the light of day.
