I've uploaded (mirrored, to be specific) two versions of the classic Star Trek game from the days of 'yore on SDF's git service.

The first is the "original" Super Star Trek (it's likely not really the original, but it's as close to it as I can find) which was found on minicomputers of the 1970's. I believe that it's been ported from BASIC to Fortran to C (which is what the version I have is). Find it here: https://git.sdf.org/anthonyg/super-startrek

Secondly, and this is the version I first encountered back in the day, is the Apple ][ version of the game called Apple Trek: https://git.sdf.org/anthonyg/appletrek

I hope the community enjoys my finds and please share your experiences with either game, new or old!

 

I posted this yesterday on Mastodon, but it's awesome enough that I feel it bears repeating here:

This is such a neat project; not just IA and textfiles.com (which in and of themselves are amazing) but the digitization of all the old Computer Shopper magazine issues. Brings back a ton of memories.

Incredible that aNONbbs ran on a laptop! Do we have an emulation/server set up with the old BBS software? It might be neat to use it...although who knows how much activity it would get these days.
