Hello,

I am looking for as many 'classic' BASIC adventure games as I can find,
both freeware and Public Domain, for the Commodore 64/128, Commodore 16
and Plus/4 computers.

I checked over at the IF-Archive, and they have some BASIC game
selections, most of which I already have on disk.

Any suggestions? I thought about TPUG, but I'm not sure if they still sell
their old disks or not.

Sincerely,

Paul Allen Panks

Only tried one (not being a huge fan of Scott Adams' flavour of
ultra-minimalism) and it wanted a 40 column screen, so I wouldn't
take the "vic20" too literally.

(Not sure about the freeware/PD status)
