PandaGame/ReadFirst
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.

File contents
!Panda Exploration game Version 1.2 January 1994 Expand this archive onto another floppy or hard disc to play. The software initially needs to save function key settings and, more usefully, you may wish to periodically save your game position. !PANDA is an amusing adventure game which, while you find you way to the Chair Bear of Panda Discs, pokes gentle fun at 'Conker Computers' and one or two other familiar names. The game is easier than most, because I can't stand getting no further than the first room. Exploring your way to Micro World, you'll find a few familiar computing names from the Acorn world, as well as discover the new PC clone operating system US-DROS. Type HELP if you're stuck. Have fun and hopefully a laugh or two.
