A simple CP/M pacman clone ("Catchum") shows gaming capabilities of this Osborne Executive portable computer. Both the computer and the game were created in 1982.
The game contains a configuration program that modifies it for a selected terminal (by modifying the control characters allowing freely moving the cursor and redrawing parts of the screen). The computer itself is not able to adress individual pixels on the screen and works always in a character mode (80x24).
