Trivia
Discussed in SAM Revival issue 14, with mock screenshots of what a SAM version should be like if it used the full capabilities of the SAM Coupe.
The game was actually packaged in the Amstrad CPC packaging, with a label proclaiming it a "SAM Version". This apparently was to overcome the licensing aspect of the game, as well as providing packaging.
