The Lynx Gaming Packet by Kale Swindell

[bfollowell]

I've seen this document, and the author, referenced on numerous Atari sites, but I've never been able to find a copy of the document itself. I was going through a bunch of old retro stuff from the attic and came across a copy. I must've paid the $15 asking price almost 30 years ago, a complete rip-off considering it was just a bunch of badly photocopied pages, but I was new to the Lynx and just had to have it. I scanned it at work tonight and thought I'd post it here for anyone it may interest.

 

There's really nothing here that you can't find in any number of locations on the Internet somewhere, but I thought it might be a neat reminder of how we used to have to get this stuff back in the day, just a few short years before the Internet as we now know it started to emerge.

Nice find, and thanks for sharing!

Even though most of this can be found on the internet it is neat to see this summary in one place. Thank you for sharing

That's really cool. I've been trying to collect various tips, cheats and walkthroughs for Lynx games over at Atari Gamer, unfortunately most I come across are image photocopies like this and converting it to text means manually typing it out. Maybe one day I'll get to doing it all!

Hmmm... few titles that I'd never heard of - such a shame they never saw the light of day

Love stuff like this! Pure gold.
