Today we well review the #80s classic #movie and #videogame #cloakanddagger from 1983
We will hack the game to get to the score mentioned in the movie and find out what secrets the American Government is hiding... And those secrets are juicy!
I noticed whilst editing I had made a little typo instead of priming the score to 13131313 I set it to 12121212 proving how hard the game gets, and how stupid Morris' attempt in the film actually was!
