It crashes because it needs write access to the Disk
for the High score table to be read/written. It hangs
waiting for access to the disk. In Beebem set the disk
to be writeable and all will work fine ;-)

Very good game BTW, it must have taken ages to code in
assembler the routine to highlight the matching
objects.

I guess you are not allowed to remove 2 matching
objects, as the game seems to require you to select
one or the other! I can't get passed level 1 yet!

Steve.
