Non-free / fair use media rationale for Mayhem in Monsterland
Description	Mayhem in Monsterland C64 game cover.
Source	Scanned from original boxed copy of game.
Article	Mayhem in Monsterland
Portion used	Entire work. No revenue losses are likely because the game and the platform have not been commercially available for many years, and the value of the game lies in its gameplay and C64 nostalgia, which this image and associated article may actually help engender.
Low resolution?	High resolution. High resolution copies of original Mayhem material are rare. The game and the platform have been out of production for many years.
Purpose of use	Image of main subject of the article and primary means of visual identification of the character and the game. Image serves as the logo, and also illustrates the style and humour of the game. Image also includes gameplay screenshots to further the reader's understanding, particularly if they are unfamiliar with the game or the genre.
Replaceable?	Non-replaceable out-of-print video game cover. No free version can be created.
