Hey fedor...

It's the right binary....

Has an intro in front of it.... Just press fire on the joystick....

If you want to dissassemble it, then $3000 onwards contains a copy of the
original rom from $c000.......

This doesn't look like the binary for the game Dragonfire itself after

Anyone got that in file format?
