     Many Apple II games were published as type-in programs by SoftSide. As far
as I know, that magazine has never been imaged for release on the net.

     SoftSide's First Five Years index lists two games named "Football", a
"Moonlanding" game, and a game named "Rubicube". For most of these, check
Asimov's multi-game disks in the .../images/games/file_based folder.

     For a fairly decent Asimov index which lists out complete file_based disk
names, check ...
