Loading games from audio cassette.

some people wouldn't even know what an audio cassette is.

I think even more bizarre is rewinding games when you'd finished, or fast forwarding to a particular point on the tape (with the tape counter) to find the game you wanted if there were several on it.

I remember having to write those down on the cassette inlays because they couldn't actually tell you where they were. It was different depending on your tape player.

We had a kick ass D&D game on the Vic 20 at computer camp. Took 10-minutes to load so we were begging the instructor to start it in time for our break.

run the command to read the tape and wait for ever while its loading
