IAmSinistar: Agreed, and that's one of the ones I'm hoping to secure. An anthology edition of the earlier games might be an easier sell as well (and in fact
a partial collection was released back in the day).
Grargar: Microprose, huh? I have a nagging feeling that we might see those games brought to Steam by Night Dive/Retroism.
Retroism is a name that Tommo uses, the Magnetic Scrolls games don't appear anywhere on that legal document of old Atari titles they bought though, AFAIK, I can dig it out for you if you like...

IAmSinistar: Honestly, apart from
The Legacy, I could easily see these games languishing forever as a "niche interest" thing. Only GOG seems like the right place for them. And even then I'm not all too sure I can convince GOG of that.
Yeah, they don't seem to have got any more Infocom adventures after the Zork anthology, although that might be down to Activision's apathy, who knows? It still weirds me out that Planetfall is included in that thing too - especially without its sequel - Stationfall!
