I have no idea how they worked, but you had a special cassette player that you hooked up to the computer and the games were on the tapes. Somehow it worked lol

This was also before hard drives where you could save directly to the computer. Everything had to be saved externally

We also had a floppy disk drive with the big old floppy disks on it. You could play the games but of course couldn't save anything. My favorite was a gamed called "Ghana Bwana." It was a ripoff of a console game called "Congo Bongo"
