The following is footage of the educational typing game Mastertype, published for the IBM PC by Lightning Software in 1983. It is not a complete playthrough of every typing lesson, but rather just enough gameplay to serve as a reference for how the game performs on the original hardware it was developed for.

This footage was recorded from an IBM PC (8088 CPU running at 4.77MHz) with a ("new-style") CGA card. The audio was tapped from the PC speaker and the video was recorded from the CGA composite output. The result was post-processed from 30i to 60p; all source frames are intact.
