Actually it's just 'Nine Lives' - the top cat's bit is the high-score table 8-) It's a very nice little game that, and apparently was mistakenly released into the PD. But, the version I have has walls all around the current area, and once you've rescued 2-cats (or is it 1??) You are stuck! Atari threw a tantrum, and de-released this, as well as NEO-Chrome, and a lot of other software, which was claimed as PD. (Although, NEO-Chrome at that stage had been available for at *least* 2-years in the Public Domain). ARC is actually Atari's own Label, I presume ARC stands for Atari something or other! ============================================================================= | O O If I told you how much I needed this, | ||| | | o I wouldn't have time to eat it.
