Are you trying to recreate that experience and play games you did
play, or are you looking for games you can play now?
I have 2.52 version of Dungeon
That's definitely missing some features (puzzles) from later versions.
I don't recall what does and doesn't backport from the VMS-era
versions.
and a version of Star Trek.
Essential!
Anyone got anything else?
If you are looking for games you _can_ play, a couple of years ago at
VCFe, I hacked one of the RT-11 Z-Machines to run on RSTS/E (it needed
one extra system call to do with memory allocation) so we could play
Zork, Planetfall, etc., on Dave McGuire's PDP-11/70. If you wanted
that I could try to dig it up. You just need a fistful of .Z3 files
to play, then.
I also used to have a number of RT-11 games when I was in front of a
PDP-11 every day. I know I have them on an RL01 pack...
