Description
-----------

This is a 2000 baud BASIC program for use with a Bally Astrocade and Astrobasic.

Tom Dooley awaits the gallows and only you can grant a reprieve.  An educational game of spelling, complete with graphics, three playing modes and music.

Paul Thacker says, "This is definitely a good version of the game.  It's got nice graphics, with a pre-drawn background similar to some of the later L&M programs like Alien Invader.  There are different options, including letting a second player input words.  It even plays Tom Dooley when you lose!"
