You could experience Automata's 1984 magnum opus by downloading the game's tape images and synchable soundtrack from the WoS archive. You could experience it by watching a complete playthrough on YouTube. You could even experience it on a proper ZX Spectrum installed next to a tape recorder running an original copy of the game. But, no matter how, the truth is you really have to experience Deus Ex Machina. Or at least find out more about it. It's such a unique and utterly unsurpassed piece of interactive entertainment (?) nobody can afford to ignore it.Then, you have to head over to the brilliant DeusExMachina2.com website, where you will be able to find out everything you can imagine about this early 8-bit masterpiece. Expect tons of artwork, videos, reviews, interviews, photos, storyboards and, shockingly, more.

ReplyDeleteWhat is it?
It is really cool, and it's a game of sorts. Follow the links dear Pacian and you'll thank me...
ReplyDeleteI had a look at it on youtube and I thought it was one of the most intriguing digital presentations I've ever seen. Life's too short for all this richness. ;)
ReplyDeleteThen again, that 1up is all we got I'm afraid. Short, but definitely worth exploiting to the full. Even with stuff loaded from tapes ;P
ReplyDeleteA good supplement for this book is this website, where you can play many ZXSpectrum games online
