| This is the original version of Bandersnatch which was recovered. Whilst colourful, the second microdrive cartridge was unreadable and the first cartridge was badly damaged, meaning that the game crashes as soon as you try to leave the first screen. It is unknown whether this was used as an example of what could be achieved on the QL to try and sell Bandersnatch to Sinclair Research, or whether it was a later version created by a fan.\\ | This is the original version of Bandersnatch which was recovered.

| {{qlwiki:bandersnatch-2-screenshot.gif?direct&240x120 |Screenshot of Sinclair QL Bandersnatch}} This is the second version of Bandersnatch which came from a large collection of microdrive cartridges purchased from the USA. It's graphics and layout are much closer to the Amiga version of Brataccas. Unfortunately, this appears to be a demonstration version (or at least unfinished) as there are no enemies or things to collect and it can crash. The lifts and doors do however work.\\ | {{screenshots:bandersnatch-2-screenshot.gif?direct&240x120 |Screenshot of Sinclair QL Bandersnatch}} This is the second version of Bandersnatch which came from a large collection of microdrive cartridges purchased from the USA.

| This has been patched to remove the copy-protection and it appears to work fine on a JS ROM with 128K and no toolkits loaded. There are still a couple of bad sectors on the microdrive cartridge, although that might have been used as part of the copy protection routine.\\ | This has been patched to remove the copy-protection and it appears to work fine on a JS ROM with 128K and no toolkits loaded.
