Bomb Threat is a game developed by Rick Adams in 1984. Rick had already released Temple of ROM with Tandy. Tandy looked at the game, and decided not to purchase it at that time. What a shame :(

The game was lost in the sands of time, including the source code, and for a while, it was only a memory.

Fast forward to 2017 and a VHS tape was discovered, showing the only remaining footage of what this game originally looked like.

Taking this footage, and the memory of the game, Rick has recently wrote the game again, from scratch, 30+ years later, and painstakingly recreated the game, capturing all of the graphics, sound, animation and game play as faithfully as possible.

What we see now, is the 2017 version of Bomb Threat, which has also been enhanced slightly to support RGB colors on a Color Computer 3, which didn't even exist in 1984!

Enjoy history in the making!
