Llamasoft: Bomb Buenos Aires

Post by OneSwitch »

I'm looking for a screenshot of the title screen from Bomb Buenos Aires (pre Blitzkrieg) for a book I'm writing. And ideally a copy of the game.

Don't suppose anyone here has a working copy in any format?

I realise it's an elusive game. Sometimes labelled as B.B.A. as I understand.

This is correct. At the time of publishing (1982) the UK and Argentina were at war over the Falkland Isles.

Edit: Notice the Argentinian flag atop some of the buildings.

Very, very similar, but not that one. The version that actually says "Bomb Buenos Aires" at the title screen.
