Finally solved case with last Kolo Fortuny

Those 2 entries should be joinned:
https://hol.abime.net/6889
https://hol.abime.net/6914

It seems that "Ko?o Szcz??cia" was Published by Eureka Soft & Hardware
and Developed by QuickSoft. Later it was Distributed (Published) by TimSoft.
Below pictures from Polish Magazine.

I would rather add the PD games after (someone) find the game.

I have removed the Quicksoft entry and added some other Polish MIA game instead.

Also, I might got things worng but it seems that these two are also the same game:

https://hol.abime.net/6889
https://hol.abime.net/6638

So it should probably be

Developer: Fantasia Entertainment Software
Publisher: TimSoft, Eureka, QuickSoft

And one of the entries should also be removed then.

The exotica page confirms that there is only one Kolo Szczescia from Eureka and TimSoft and it might be this one. They got the developer wrong, tho. In fact, it might be that Eureka didn't even developed or published the game, it was just a mistake from exotica. The developer before the title screen is Fantasia Entertainment.

in this entry:
https://hol.abime.net/6889
Developer should be QuickSoft
Publisher TimSoft/Eureka
It's confirmed by scans from Magazyn Amiga from my previous post

In this entry:
https://hol.abime.net/6638
I can agree that Eureka should be removed as Publisher becuse there's no proof for it.

We decided that there will be a 'Hack/Bootleg' license type for those 'unofficial' releases. I've changed the Kolo Fortuny (Rookies) entry to that license type.

I have fixed the Quicksoft's entry. As for now I have added something else in the place of the TimSoft entry as I suspect this is the same game.

Why have you removed entry?
Kolo Szczescia
Developer: Fantasia Entertainment Software
This is official release and ADFs are present in TOSEC. My point was jut to remove Eureka as Publisher of this games.

BTW
QuickSoft release is MIA. At least i can't find it...

I haven't quite removed it, I merged it here: https://hol.abime.net/6638

This is the same game as the one showed in the Ad, which is developed by QuickSoft.

Let's go step by step now

- Kolo Szczescia (dev: Fantasia, publ: QuickSoft) was reviewed 12/93.
- Kolo Szczescia (publ: TimSoft) was in the ad from 1995

If we assume this is the same game then there is no problem.

But, exotica page says the developer is Eureka, Publisher is TimSoft.

It could be that the ad is wrong, and the TimSoft game is not the same as the one reviewed. Or, Exotica page got it wrong.

I will make a new entry for the Eureka/TimSoft until we got a confirmation that this indeed is or isn't the same game.

EDIT: This is how it is now

Kolo Szczescia (Fantasia)
https://hol.abime.net/6638
Dev: Fantasia Entertainment Software (TOSEC name)
Publ: QuickSoft (According to the review)

Kolo Szczescia (Eureka)
https://hol.abime.net/6935
Dev: Eureka (According to exotica)
Publ: TimSoft (According to exotica)

And I'm really sorry for the fuss, but there are several games with the same name who wouldn't be confused.

so my conclusion is to create one entry:
Kolo Szczescia
Developer: QuickSoft / Fantasia Entertainment Software
Publisher: Eureka Soft & Hardware / TimSoft

Below translation of above picture.

Amiga in school
Mikrozet, a Wroclaw-based company, offers 40 sets with educational programs for Amiga. In total, there are 35 elementary school math programs (20 of them with a test), 23 elementary school physics programs and 84 high school physics programs. Yes, finally yes, finally someone thought of us. Well done, Microzet!

BTW
Only 39 sets are now missing I don't have a working Amiga right now so i can't dump a disk
Maybe someone from Poland here can help me to make a copy.

I assume the scans are the 'doc*' files in the 'Mikrozet' folder? If so I'll add them when NPI has created the entry
