Two more Garry Francis Adventure disks for the Microbee - ChickenMan - 05-06-2026
Thanks to cpc-power site for making Amstrad CP/M disks available. The games were extracted and copied to a Microbee disk together with the Microbee VESSA Infocom Loader. Thanks to Garry Francis for writing them also.
The disk consists of 8 x Z5 files and is menu driven using the Z5 Microbee VESSA Infocom loader. All are new adventures written in 2025.
You can exit the Adventures with Q or QUIT, followed by a Y and you will be returned to the Menu. However, you MUST re-boot the disk to be able to run another game.
1. A Taste of Terror
2. Caribbean Treasure
3. The Time Crystals of Cythii
4. Unknown Dimension
5. Tin Star
6. Wild West
7. Desperados
8. The Wrath of Anubis
Garry Francis Adventure disk 2 has been updated and now uses a Menu. Because there was room both on the disk and menu, so another game was added. I had to rename the VESSA.COM down to VES.COM to enable it to be run from the Menu. So the game list now is -
1. Acid Rain
2. Captain Cutters Treasure
3. Danny Dipstick
4. Lost Ark
5. The Samurai and the Kappa
6. The Mystery of Winchester High
7. Hangman's Gulch
Walk thoughts are also included for all of the adventures, these all came from https://solutionarchive.com/ and written by our member Warrigal, thanks. Use BISHOW (F forward, B backwards) or Transfer to view them, both are on the disk. They also have Maps for most of the games there also. Use ONLY if you really get stumped.
So in the MbeeTech Repository in the Microbee\Software\Games\Adventure folder we placed
garry_francis_adventure_disk3_ds80.dsk
garry_francis_adventure_disk2_ds80.dsk <-- updated
