IA 3611, Dragonfire, and 03205, Fathom!

Hi guys, this episode is about Dragonfire and Fathom, two more games by the great software company Imagic. I hope that you enjoy it. In two weeks I'll be talking about Omega Race and Tunnel Runner by CBS Electronics. If you have any thoughts on these games or games that I've already covered, please send them to me at 2600gamebygame@comcast.net or 2600gamebygame@gmail.com. Thank you very much for listening, and if you celebrate Easter or Spring Break, have a great one, or both.
