Electric Gambit

Simone Holm, 1984. Game for the Macintosh.

Description

A space trading game for the Macintosh that Simone Holm wrote alone and released as shareware in 1984.

Provenance

Sent to Lazarus by post, with a note asking whether anything could be saved. The disks had been stored beside a loudspeaker, and one track on each was weak. A handful of files survive, from a much larger whole.
