Subject: Alternate Reality The City - C64 working version

I have come across a complete working version of
Alternate Reality The City for the Commodore 64!

http://www.gb64.com/oldsite/gameofweek/11/gotw_alternatereality-city.htm

The page has a lukewarm 1986 review of AR from a
British 8-Bit Magazine and a followup interview with
the president of Datasoft who tries to convince the
reviewer of the true brilliance of AR. At the bottom
of the page is a link to download The City.

In the zip file are five .D64 images:
ALTCITY0 is Side 1
ALTCITY1 is Disk 2 Side 1
ALTCITY2 is Disk 2 Side 2
ALTCITY3 is a Character Disk
ALTCITY4 is a Character Disk Editor similar to Resurex
for the Atari 8-Bit

I'm a Mac user, so I can only vouch for it's
performance with Power64 and FrodoSC,
but I've been playing around with it for a few days,
and it seems to be complete and work just fine. Even
though the character editor program's graphics are
garbled, it seems to work okay.

Download, Enjoy, Spread the word!
