First, I was out a week a go putting through a thrift store and came across a used Interactive game disk. I fought the temption of buying it but decided since the one I purchased all those years ago sound never worked, what would it hurt. Now, I've completely forgotten how to play the dang thing (The sound works by the way). Any help?

I was listening to a collection I had and came across SLave to the System. I was thinking it might have been orginally intended for Emancipation but was replaced by its "remix" Slave. Lyrically wise, I like Slave to the System but Slave musically sounds superior. What do you think?

"Slave 2 the system" was written during the Exodus sessions, wasn't it?

There is even a slightly different (more fierce) version of it featuring
Sonny T on vocals. It features on a tape together with Mad/Funky Design
SuperHero and Outa Space.

So I think Prince just did his own take, perhaps during or slightly before
the Emancipation era. But I do feel like "Slave" is just an entirely new
and different song. I don't hear to many influences from one in the other
apart from the title.

Just like the 1990 and 1991 versions of "Get Off" and "Gett Off" share not
very much more than a similarity in title.

Technically, "Slave 2 The System" was originally slated for the NPG Exodus album (there is a version of the song with Sonny T on vocals. If you listen to the song, the lyrics are written for Sonny). Prince pulled the track when he recorded this beefed-up version. Ultimately, he reworked much of it into "Slave", and the original never saw the light of day (it should be noted, however, that the two tracks DID have a parrallel evolution. Both were recorded in the same sessions).

The basics of it is that you have to go through all the rooms and click on all the various items ie discs on the wall, clothes in wardrobe etc etc and play the games like the shufflebaord etc and collect all the pieces that make up the symbol.
