The demo game(s) for Incentive's GAC. Do they really deserve two separate entries?

Yes. They're too separate games. We usually list the demonstration adventures for authoring systems... in some cases that's the only game we know about for a system!

Ransom is particularly significant as it well remembered and has had several unofficial ports.

On the BBC Micro they are the same game, in essence. The solution is the same for both too.

Ah, in that case I don't think auraes realised that when submitting the entry. I'll just combine them.

(I hate GAC* so I don't ever look at what's included on that system)




*It's not good on the Spectrum.

The rooms are less descriptive in AdvinMan, and Ransom has graphics. But otherwise they're the same.
