tape002a_acorn_gideons_gamble_bbc.wav (3 files; 26.52 kB)

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.

These files have been digitised from original cassettes by Dominic Ford in 2022-3. They are exact replicas of the original tape media, with the original loaders. Most commercial tapes are the Acorn Electron version, unless otherwise stated.
The files below are intended to run on: Acorn Electron / BBC Micro.
