Oh ho ho, then you didn't figure out the secret, you got lucky!
Its amusing that after I messed with it, it still sounded almost the same.
There was a secret? I thought it just sounded like Gradius and it's the NES sound chip.
Wait, did you play it backwards? That would explain why it sounded a little off.

Yup. Forwards was too easy. I was surprised when backwards didn't really sound all that different.

Well, I thought that was going to last longer than that. Did you know, or did you start typing in stuff from the wheel into google?
Oh, and correct.

Google'd Urmech (top entry on the wheel), and the second entry was Bard's Tale wiki, which also mentioned the code wheel. A couple searches later and I figured out which Bard's Tale game it was.

Doh, I tried to make it small enough to make it hard to make out unless you already knew what it generally was and might recognize one of the city names. Bleh.
