A peripheral by RAM7 that allow to hack cartridges for the CPC+.
Basically it is a modification of the RAMCard to use it as a cartridge.
It plugs to the expansion port of the Plus and replaces the ROM from the cartridge, but still uses the ACID.
This device use a RAM instead of a ROM, so, like the RAMCard, you can replace the content and use it as a development tool to create code that will later be burned on a real ROM to put in a cartridge.
Note it will not allow you to use cartridges without an ACID chip, but it will allow you to load a ROM dump from disk and play any ROM game this way.
