- Arcade — Germany, founded 23 April 1992
Ranked #39 on intros.c64.org and rated 9.73/10 on CSDb — one of the highest-rated crack intros in the entire database. CSDb catalogues the release as "Arcade Intro" and dates it 24 April 1992, just one day after the group's founding on 23 April 1992. CSDb credits Bacco for the code and Vogue — Markus Siebold — for the music. The SID tune is titled simply "Arcade Intro" and is preserved in the HVSC under Siebold's composer directory. Doc Snyder's page for Arcade exists but carries no section confirmed to match this specific release. The near-simultaneous founding and release date suggests the intro was built as the group's public launch piece.
