The second issue of the Samara-based magazine Oberon delivers deep dives into retro classics and new releases, featuring guides for Elite 3, Empire 128, and Peking, alongside software reviews and coverage of the Enlight 1996 demoparty. The technical sections cover software development lifecycles and an INT-signal hardware fix for ZX Spectrum clones. Local feedback and a spirited debate with Spectrofon over hacker culture add a lively layer to the issue, which rounds out with upcoming software previews and sci-fi satire.
