INTRODUCTION
*************
You know Jozin z Bazin song from Ivan Mladek band, dont you? For those who missed it:

This is dance quest: I show and you repeat the dance movement from the clip.
You have to wait a while after start the game, then a beep, and border switching to blue - you can check/learn the key control functions (press 0-9) you can press the keys 20 times. After that the border switch to purple: you have to learn the move (one step increase in every cycle). Then border switch back to grey, any its your turn: press the numbers to reproduce the dance. If you failed border will be red, if it was OK, border will switch to green. If the steps finished the game restarts from training.
If you arent familiar with the VideoTON TVC Computers, you are not alone. This computer built and sold mostly in Hungary, Europe. The category between the ZX-Spectrum or Amstrad CPC and between Enterprise 128 (lets say: the successor). 32, and 64k Memory, Z80 processor and 16 (hmm actually 15) color. It has four expansion slots, which makes it unique and quite expandable. You can find more information at www.tvc.hu, and you should use google translator i guess.
