No topic on type-ins would be complete without mentioning that legend that is Jim Grimwood who has been collating these titles longer than I care to remember.
My favorite type-in is a flight simulator, from Input magazine (1984).
I did some changes, fix a few errors and added the title screen.
It seems that program is not in the ZXDB archive, yet.
Here is the original version in Spectrum basic, as well as version for Boriel basic and compiled version in Boriel compiler:
It's good to see titles from Microhobby mentioned. With the help of the OCR enabled PDFs from [mention]KenD[/mention] I have very much been enjoying the magazine. Very different to English language titles.
Pixy the Microdot from Your Sinclair is one that really stands out in my memory - super fun little game, I spent far longer with this than with any other type-in I can recall.

Portals of P’thaal or something like that. They ended up putting it on the b-side of a cover tape. Maybe the Cyclone one.
