Continuing my hunt for some unique Atari 5200 titles, we have a boxed copy of Space Dungeon, which includes a dual joystick adapter.
This one is of particular interest as I am working on a port of the arcade game to Colecovision, MSX, Spectravideo & SG-1000.
Let's unbox it & then give it a 1st try.

Managed to get a nice boxed copy of a Parker Brothers game for the Atari 5200 that I had not heard of. It sounded 'Spacey', so couldn't go too wrong - let us have a 1st look together.
