Which company should be listed as the developer? The majority of the platforms have 'Sir-tech Software', but I notice that the PC Booter version has 'Robert Woodhead, Inc.' & 'Andrew Greenberg, Inc.' listed.

AFAIK, early Sir-Tech did not have internal development and was a publisher only.

Did Sir-tech Software (not Sir-tech Canada) have any internal development? Our write-up makes it appear as if they didn't and all game development was done by the Canadian company (which was a separate company).

Both Wikipedia & Harcore Gaming 101 have Sir-tech listed as the developer (for this and the earlier games as well). At the very least, it seems as if 'Andrew Greenberg, Inc.' & 'Robert Woodhead, Inc.' shouldn't be listed as developers.

Well, this raises the question of: what was the source of this information?

I imagine it was: we didn't keep track of that kind of thing back when it was submitted.

Huh. Well, who are we to second-guess something so authoritative?

A lot of the early packaging had copyright 'Andrew Greenberg, Inc.' & 'Robert Woodhead, Inc.' I just think that these 'companies' were probably more created for copyright purposes than being development houses. Also, Roe Adams designed the fourth scenario, which developer did he work for?
