Whether it's Mire Mare or a BASIC tape you found in the attic, it needs to be preserved digitally. Post here and experts can help to do so.

I was surfing in the Games that time forgot page and came across this game that was recovered (it is by Clive Townsend):

I'm not sure what to do here. Ace Triplex needs an ID, but can someone pull this .dsk apart to give a single file of it?

It's easy enough to get a SNA snapshot file - load it in an emulator in +3 mode and save a snapshot.
This and the other one look very unfinished. Keys on both seem to be AZNM and space.

Aye cheers. I've already done that. I wondered about ripping it as a standalone TAP or DSK, but thinking again, that would almost be like making a crack.

Snapshots it is. We can add the .dsk compilation too.
