Dacholer

Dacholer is one of those names that appear in preserved-board registries without much additional source material on its development, publisher, or original reception. Its rarity status is, in itself, part of what makes it interesting for collecting. More than analyzing its gameplay in detail, it's worth acknowledging its place in the huge, poorly documented periphery of arcades: that of titles that didn't even leave behind accounts from those who played them at the time.
