Calendar: What's the source of the festive artwork here?

 

YN: I find it hilarious how the Interface Age article calls the games Zero-Zap, Yahtzee, Connect Four and Hangman "exciting." Seems like "some of the world's best electronic engineers" should have talked to a few people/kids whom had played Atari before deciding these Milton-Bradley board game translations were going to make good launch titles.

I wondered that too. So much more could have been done here. As a matter of fact, the whole review was laughable in its praise of a clearly half-baked system...

I found this in 2 sec with @kl99 ´s tool WEB99 hint hint ?

(would be nice to have a Right-Click option to >Save As >.BIN (3/8/9)

 and all the other formats like .DSK/.V9T9 .RPK .GRM .ARK .HFE .BAS .WAV .TFI/.tifiles ... :) )

Starforce and Suboceanic are present in the GameBase v2.1

Is also present a Go Kart game (that @HOME AUTOMATION published) but it is not named "Go Kart Race", it could be the same game probably but I had doubts.

 

While I have no doubts that Sub Oceanic is the right one, I had doubts instead about the other two titles.

Star Force is part of the Tigercub collection ( Tigercub 1492 - Assorted Games 3 (19xx)(Tigercub Software)(PD).dsk )

so it not seems to be so rare to find already since years ago... are we sure that maybe another Star Force game was referring by the list on YN pages?

anyway, if it can be glad by someone I have a dsk that I created for the ti99iuc DB that use the files contained into the tigercub disk, so, at least, you can have the right loader needed to start the game in XB.

STARFORCE.dsk
