I just recently found a file on ARES with all of these for download, but I noticed that only the first one will fit on 1.44 mb floppy disk. I thought that these were produced on floppies, what's the deal?

Chances are the later ones shipped on multiple floppies, I could be wrong though, but thats my guess.
Welcome to Macintosh.
Well, the second is only 1.52 mb, so I'm thinking I may have some unnecessary files that I can get rid of befor transferring them to disk.
Later ones shipped on multiple floppies and then on CD. Those are the right sizes. Now go play and Enjoy :P
Thanks for the help, sorry if it was a dumb question. The games are atually fun, although very cheesy.
That's why we love 'em. God bless Al Lowe.Originally Posted by atm55
I would not be surprised if the earliest ones actually originally shipped on 720k floppies or even 1.2 MB 5.25" floppies.

I have original copies of 2 and 3. Without checking I'm sure 2 came on 5.25 disks. I think 3 came on both, but again, that's just from memory.
