Infocom produced versions of atleast 2 of their games for the Plus/4:
Cutthroats and Suspect. There might have been others. These I can
verify. Both games are on disks which were for both Plus/4 and C64.
The C-16 didn't have enough memory to run the Infocom games. I haven't
seen any mention of the Plus/4 in any Infocom catalog. Strange.

Subject: c-16 and Plus/4
Anyway, I also have a TON of other titles that I
have been using for some
time on my PC emulator called Minus/4. A very good emulator. So, I guess
what I am finally getting at is it seems there actually WERE a lot of
different titles created for these machines, though I do not know the
actual numbers of titles, quantities, or popularity in the US. Could
anyone out there fill us in on some facts?
Besides Magic Carpet Software, Data-20 (responsible for the +3
productivity programs in the +4s ROM), and Progressive Software
(Superbase is available for the Plus/4!) I didnt hear of all that much
stuff put out in the U.S. Europe on the other hand has had a great
following with the Plus/4 and C-16, most of the programs I would safely
guess are from there.
