    The first thing I like to say is congratulations on the purchase. Fantastic video on how to save these classic game boxes. I love the travel iron, and I will certainly be using this video guide to repair some of my game boxes. 🔥👏

    ZAK MCKRACKEN is - and always will be -
    a legendary classic game on the
    Commodore 64 and Amiga 500 😺👍🕹️.
    Also, your video deserves a big retrospective like 👍🕹️ from Vantaa, Finland 🇫🇮 😺👍.

      Thank you! Yes, I could not agree more. It reminds me of those care free days from childhood. Lovely game!

    Very good final result! The trick with wet cloth and iron did the trick! I'm very happy you gave this awesome game a second life.

      It really turned out great! Just getting it back into the correct shape was like a 90% improvement.

    Very nice and informative video. Shame I don't have any tatty boxes that I could apply the procedures on. Well, I only have 2 boxes at all. Well done anyway 👍.

      @@stefanberghuis8405 Thank you very much! I surprised myself with this result 😄 Turned out way better than I expected. The songs (except the Zak title theme, ofc) are my own. The last one is a FT2 tune I made back in the end of the 90's if I remember correct. It's called "Tum-tum-tum" (silly name!) It's in the Mod preservation archive, if interested: amp.dascene.net/detail.php?detail=modules&view=8854
