    ipdb.notes
    This is an electronic prototype of the EM game of the same name. The sole example we have seen of this game had cabinet art from Williams' 1976 'Aztec' and likely was a cabinet taken from that production run. Circa 1977. The MPU used in this game is sometimes referred to as "System 2". It was only used in this game and the prototype solid state Aztec. What is sometimes called "System 1" is only used in Williams' 1977 'Grand Prix'. "System 3" was the first system used for regular production.
