Plasma Bolt works for me in Oric-1 mode but not Atmos. When the game starts it looks like it has frozen when the music ends but starts again about 5 seconds later!

Here's the two Quizmaster games. They are incorrectly named Quizzmaster 1 and 2 on oric.org and the game files are missing.

Hi Didier, I no longer own the games but I do have this scan from the Sport & Games version. I'm not sure why I don't have a scan for the Rock & Pop version, sure I scanned it back in the day. Also added some screenshots from both games if they are of any use (the RAR files).

Your welcome Steve. Here's "Hero Zero", a pretty good machine code game I typed in from Your Computer Magazine. It's listed twice on oric.org since the game was also released by the programmer to buy via mail order.

Also added Jump Fox, a nice type-in game from Hebdogiciel Magazine.

Last one for tonight is "Snowball" by Level 9 Computing. When I get to adding the crappy games from books I will likely just zip them all into a single file and name the book they came from. That's a while away yet though.

There's two listings for this game. Lander by Your Computer is a redundant entry and should be removed. Oric Lander (Your Computer) is already listed with a game file but it's a hack. The programmer is actually Denis Salisbury and I've included the true game file. (yes Denis, not Dennis!)
