Christian, I had a real "Twilight Zone" failure on my 1000 with a bad 8520. The time of day clock kept repeating the same 1:27 over and over. It was actually useful for some games. They appeared to set their initial conditions based on the 8520's counter. The bad chip only allowed maybe half a dozen configurations in Hack…. once you recognized the layout, you knew where all the treasures were hidden. 🙂 -Jim MOS via Autopilot & Amiga
