If you've ever wondered how to solve the mystery of the stolen master tape in this 1980s DOS game that features probably the best speech synthesis available in a DOS game that's under one megabyte, well, here's the solution!

If you want to see the rest of the game, Awkward Aardvark has posted a full no-commentary playthrough of the game here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=415OUgctnX0

If you're wondering why Awkward Aardvark's version of the game looks different, it's because that video is in Tandy mode. I made this video with DOSBox running in regular PC (non-Tandy) mode, which makes the game run much faster, but prevents the newscaster's face from appearing in the lower-right, and also makes the voice synthesis sound different.
