I was pleased to see Atari ST software available in the local "Program Store". Not much, but they had single copies of a few items on the shelf and were hoping for more in this week. I didn't write down the names of the products I saw, so this is from memory (a few parity errors). 1. HEX - A game from Sign of the Unicorn. You control a Unicorn which is hopping around on a hexagon of hexagons. There are opponents (jellyfish and the like) which are competing for the hexagons against you. 2. A Terminal emulator program (cheap and simple). I think it was a VT100 emulator. Looks like it was produced by a smaller concern judging by the lack of glossy packaging. 3. A really fancy communications package. Expensive, around $120. May have also been from Sign of the Unicorn. Has a terminal emulator, communications protocols (KERMIT, XMODEM, capture mode, all the good stuff). 4. MINCE - An emacs-like text editor. Around $120-$15 I think. 5. ZORK I, Infocom. Don't recall the price, but I think it was about $40.
