If you’ve been holding out for a hero, you’re in luck — on this week’s episode of Sprite Castle I play and discuss H.E.R.O., the 1984 game by Activision.

If you would like to play along, you can find links to download Vice (a Commodore 64 emulator) along with all the games played on Sprite Castle by clicking on the downloads tab at the top of the page. Next week’s game is California Games by Epyx, so don’t forget to submit your questions for the next Mach Five Speed Round!
