Crystal/Info

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.

Mission Control: Crystal Rain Forest 2

Control technology will never be the same again!

Azon is in trouble again! Gomez, a wicked scientist has escaped from prison
and is totally set on environmental destruction with the aid of his evil
robots. Using the wonderful crystals found in the rainforest he is producing
dangerous chemicals that are polluting the rivers and killing the wildlife.

All children who came to the rescue in Crystal Rain Forest will surely want
to help again! Familiar characters from Crystal Rain Forest are around to
offer help and advice in this exciting new adventure from our best selling
author, Simon Hosler.

Crystal Rain Forest 2 introduces Control Technology to primary school
children in a highly original and motivating way.  

Pupils face a series of problems and challenges that introduce and develop
the idea of control technology in a carefully structured and logical
manner as they battle their way through the rain forest in a valiant
attempt to thwart Gomez�s fiendish plans.

Crystal Rain Forest 2 is a must for anyone struggling to get to grips
with Control Technology.
