Dotman, Dam Town And Mr. Marble

Three games put together by a Mr. King using STOS Basic. Dotman is a Pacman clone - copyright be damned. It's playable but not good enough to threaten the hordes of other Pacman clones.

Dam Town is a bit like Blitz; you bomb aliens as they try and destroy a dam. Presented well, but very simple.

Mr. Marble is a platform game where your chap needs to collect coloured marbles in a certain order. You'll play this one the most, it's not that good but you feel obliged to complete a few levels and it's not that easy.

Not a collection to set the heart racing, although it's bug-free and reasonably put together, the basic game ideas are lacking.
