FWIW, I've been trying to find some missing Apple II games and came across the Apple II Mars Mission. I can't get it to understand any of my input, but, as it's written in BASIC, I can look at the source code and see that it's not based on Dog Star Adventure and looks different to the other Mars Missions. I've put it in the too-hard basket for the time being. I need to learn more about all the intracacies of the Apple II.
Yeah, I was looking at it yesterday, running it from one of the compilation disk images on this page (which is really useful as it lets you look at the contents of individual files on the disk, such as the BASIC listings) and also lets you run the disks in an online emulator. http://apple.rscott.org/tools/listdsks.htm?search=
...and yeah, I couldn't get it to accept any inputs either.
I'll scratch it off my list of Dog Star candidates, though.
