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.

Reaction (version 2.1) ~~~~~~~~ By Gareth Moore (c)1993 Archimedes World <Z> moves the piece left <X> moves the piece right <SPACE> rotates the piece <CTRL> drops the piece <P> pauses and unpauses the game Press <D> at the start of the game to change these keys, or <O> to alter the gameplay options. Simply make rows, columns or diagonals of an identical colour! Every time you create a line at least three tiles long then that line will be removed and the rest of the tiles will shuffle downwards. Magic blocks act as each colour in turn. Blocker blocks don't disappear until a Remover block is dropped in the same column. For full instructions wait whilst the title screen or the high score table is displayed. Remove the program from the ArcFS archive if you wish to preserve your highscores.
