I see...so it is only Cidelsa you are after.

Unfortunately not much regarding Cidelsa games on Undumped Wiki page. iirc the Octopus entry was first mentioned on MAME Italia forum within past year or so by someone that remembered the game and was asking about the game. Before then, no outside of Europe region knew about the game's existence.

You probably have more info regarding some of the games within Spain compared to Undumped Wiki, but Stiletto and company do keep tabs and update when possible when new info is found.

Some of these games are:

- Clean octopus (referenced from a inventary of items from a museum exhibition listed here: https://perswww.kuleuven.be/~u0008708/museum.htm)
- Nightmare
- Space Blaster

> I didn't know about Stiletto and Undumped Wiki, so I will try to contact him too.

Stiletto is a regular poster here and might either reply here on the thread or send a message to you later.

What is currently missing, regarding in Spain, is any info of video arcade games released during 1970s. There are probably some pong clones released there that folks outside of Spain are not aware of.

>Anyway Cidelsa exported games so items could be found someday outside as well at Spain.

One interesting find from a few years ago was a game that likely only a couple folks were aware of....especially one person that remembered the game's music when game ends and the player is able to add the name to ranks of players' top scores (not the highest score, but any score below top score).

Game was Planet Probe, a likely really rare limited game release and the only person that really recalled the game was extremely happy game was found and emulated at the time. The guesses are that Planet Probe was designed in Japan and some pcbs were released in parts of Europe.
