Murder on the Mississippi:
„The German Version
In 1986 then video game journalist Boris Schneiderundertook one of the first documented fan translation efforts:
Over the course of one weekend (!) he single-handedly cracked and translated the C64 version of Murder on the Mississippi into German by using a simple hex editor and a self-written disk editor. He then sent "his" translated version of the game to Activision, which they officially released in Germany.“
