      I’d never heard of it before but looks interesting.

      Over 40 years ago, in 1984, the BBC ran a documentary on the UK video game industry which was notable for charting the spectacular fall of Imagine Software, creators of the infamous ‘megagames’ Bandersnatch and Psyclapse.

      Commercial Breaks: The Race For Santa’s Software also covered rival company Ocean Software, but is most notable for being “in the room” at the moment when Imagine went bust.

        Bandersnatch was a real thing? I remember watching the black mirror interactive movie about it, lol.
