Backgammon/Blackjack

Two BASIC games on opposite sides of the same cassette:

In Backgammon two players face off. Games are played singly, with no overall score or doubling die. Input during gameplay is numeric, in choosing from a short menu of choices and in indicating which pieces to move. The rules are enforced, but not explained.

Blackjack pits one or two players against the computer as dealer. One or two decks can be used, and the cards played since last shuffle can be reviewed briefly each turn. Players can double, and they have the option of buying insurance against a dealer blackjack. Bets, as well as debt, are virtually unlimited.
