That was my first game, played it on a 286 or similar in what could still have been the USSR (or right after it was gone).

IIRC, it had a PC-speaker rendition of Popcorn by Hot Butter as a soundtrack.

Still one of my favorite tunes!



Replace USSR with the Netherlands and we have a similar memory.

Also, apparently that song has a long history in electronic music:

One of my first games as well. You're correct about the popcorn soundtrack


Yep, my first game too, and I remember the song. When I heard the popcorn song many years later in life, I was stopped dead in my tracks because it stirred nearly the oldest memory I had stored in my head.
