As a footnote to this, can I recommend Stuart Ashen’s talk about Hareraiser, a lacklustre kind-of follow up and contender for “worst video game ever”: ▶ this video
Ashens has a nice presentation on the video game version of "Masquerade": ▶ this video (spoilers ahead!)
> it will be buried somewhere in Arizona desert link which then lead into the Hareraiser game which is unofficially the officially worse computer “game” to ever be created. For more info about the affair in video form there is this talk from the Norwich Game Festival a few years back ▶ this video
