No, it isn't broken. It executes using a little basic program. rom header 
explanation

db      "AB"
dw      rcInit  ; machine language init routine
dw      rcCall  ; basic call statement support
dw      rcDev   ; device access support
dw      rcBas   ; start of basic code

the game uses rather strange mapper change address: $0000. It maps pages of 
16 kB.
