That is no cartridge but a normal cassette tape for the Coleco Adam home computer.

C64 had similar data tapes until the floppy drives got popular.

Or the audio tapes for Sony's Walkman.

And this was the essential tool for these cassettes:

Lol. I'm old enough to remember cassettes. Just never knew they had games on them.

The Coleco Adam Expansion Module expanded the Coleco into a home computer.  Or the Adam could be bought as a separate computer from the ColecoVision console (and still play ColecoVision cartridges).  The Adam did not come bundled with a disk drive (although one could later be bought separately).  So, the Adam's primary way to run programs was from Digital Data Packs (cassettes). 

I had a ColecoVision growing up, but never knew about the Adam until many years later since it came out so close to the North American Video Game Crash.  My family's first home computer was the TRS-80 Color Computer 2 from Radio Shack.
