Microbee's Adventure Disks - 02, 06, 07, 08 & 09 have all been Updated - ChickenMan - 09-07-2022
Recently found was the site https://eblong.com/infocom/, which has a complete list and all known versions of the entire Infocom released game titles. Checking the latest version of each showed some of our versions of Infocom games needed to be updated, about 1/2 of them actually. Infocom regularly released game update files as they slowly eliminated errors in the games. So its important to be running the latest error free versions as possible.
Also found were 2 new game released (A Mind Forever Voyaging & Mini-Zork 2) in Z3 format. There was not enough space to put the Mini-Zork 2 on Adventure 02 disk together with Mini Zork 1, so was put on Adventures 08 as there was space on the disk as well as the menu. A Mind Forever Voyaging (which is an early release that was finally released in Z5 format only) went on Adventure 07 as there was space on the disk as well as the menu also. So these are the disks updated with the updated files as indicated :
