I went through my disk image collection and found lots of single-load games that could be put onto crunch collections, figured I'd post a list. The ones with question marks I'm not 100% sure are single load, but I'm pretty sure this list is at least 95% complete.

If you don't have or can't find any of these titles, just let me know and I'll send you an image with the binaries.

Some good suggestions here.  Thanks :)

NOTE: On crunch3, Swashbuckler is not single-load

Hm, I thought the version I used was hacked into a singleloader. :/

Single-load games not on current crunch disks:

Can't remember where on Asimov they are:
Pegasus II ??
Hi-Res Cribbage
Micro Chess
Dark Forest ??
Ankh
Crime Wave
Mars Cars
Quadrant 6112
Bug Attack
Ceiling Zero
Star Thief
Gemini
Micro Wave ??

I got some of these.  Definitely got Micro Chess on an unreleased disk.
Most of 'em I haven't heard of though.

Stuff on Asimov:
Potential candidates from action:
