Oh, I see. Well, I never could tell Matrix and Gridrunner apart :?

But the cartridge AMC and the tape-based Matrix (+8K) were identical games apart from title? Gridrunner also was found on cartridge, but wasn't that identical to the unexpanded tape-based Gridrunner?

It seemed a number of games that fit into unexpanded machine actually were released on cartridge too, and I'm not considering the fake BLK5 images that copy themselves down to RAM and then execute. I wonder how many genuine 4K cartridges that could be hacked into unexpanded games (thus not requiring lot of RAM storage to operate).
