Download digitally archived Bally Arcade tape programs that will load with AstroBASIC (the BASIC with the built-in tape-interface).
Todd Johnson wrote four RPG-like programs that were contained on one tape. Here is a description of the tape from an advertisement in the newsletter, ARCADIAN 4, no. 10 (Aug. 6, 1982): 103.
"The Crown of Zeus" is the first in a series of programs that take place on the planet Gibeleous. Others now available are:
The Rescue of Catherine: After you went to save the crown, the Scromites became angry with you and have kidnapped Catherine, the Princess of Beekum, hoping that you will be sent to save her. They set some traps so Watch Out!
Escape from Rantanam IV: You've been captured by mechanical aliens who have come to Gibeleous for unknown reasons. You must escape and warn the leaders of Beekum.
The Tower of Machor: The orcs are after you again in this one with eight levels. You must destroy the alien computer which has been leading the orcs in their quest for domination of Gibeleous.
You can get all four great programs on one cassette tape with complete descriptions and instructions for the low, low price of only $10!
