This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

SNAPPER Guide the SNAPPER through the maze eating dots and fruit while trying to escape the creatures from the cave. When you eat a flashing dot the creatures turn blue and become edible ... eat them quickly while you can. Uneaten blue creatures start to flash just before they are due to change back again. When you have eaten all the dots you tackle a new screenful. The game gets progressively faster, and with higher scores as the fruit increases in value. You start with three SNAPPERS, but can earn another one by scoring 15000 points. You must survive twelve screenfuls before catching a glimpse of the ultimate prize ...... the Acorn, worth 5000 points! CONTROLS UP : DOWN / LEFT Z RIGHT X SCORE DOT 10 FLASHING DOT 50 CREATURE 200 to 1600 FRUIT 100 to 2000 ACORN 5000 LEAVING THE GAME Pressing <ESCAPE> will take you back to the score board. If you wish to leave the game press <CTRL> <BREAK> then <SHIFT> <BREAK> which will re-boot the Welcome disc. ��
