Popcornfud, FYI, I tagged the image I uploaded for speedy deletion based on a request from the uploader so that should probably do the trick. Thanks for finding a better cover art image, I didn't realize the one I'd uploaded wasn't an original (though I guess the rating should have tipped me off given that the game was from 1989).

DocFreeman24, no problemo. I don't know anything about this game and wouldn't have noticed the image was wrong either - a friend of mine who knows I do Wikipedia messaged me and asked me to fix it! Popcornfud (talk) 10:25, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
