Wanted: Victory (Kingsoft)

Hello again,

I am looking for an original (box, manual, disk) of Kingsoft's Victory.

Can someone help?

Patrick

Nooo, I am not just bumping this up again. I also found out that Victory was released on a raaaare Kingsoft-compilation called "Quattro Fun". So, hopefully there is an original/dump of the retail or compilation release out there? And maybe the manual....

Happy sunday, Patrick

Ah, neat. Did you manage to safe the original image? I can only save the Google search result image and it is pretty low quality.

Sadly no:-( The original advertisement/annonce seems to be long gone...
I wonder what other titles were included. On that disk we see Bug Bomber and Victory

I found this: https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzei...45015-227-4887
and this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264663901...y&toolid=10050
So it seems the C64 version had Bug Bomber and Pot Panic. Might be just the two games then.

Interesting, but why call the collection "Quattro Fun" then? Should be 4 games I guess. I am sure we will find out one day!

Hmm, the C64 Quattro Fun doesn't have Victory, so no help there.

I did manage to find an adf of the Amiga version, it could be cracked or a non protected version used for the 1992 Quattro Fun compilation, maybe.

Disk's in the Zone.

But it states that Disk 2 is missing, so that might be the explanation (2 games per disk = 4)

Yes, I just realised that after reading it again.

Another thing, highscore table is nice and clean in the adf in the Zone, unlike the Vision Factory adfs.

Thank you for having a look But that disk doesn't have Bug Bomber on it? Then it should not be from the Quattro Fun compilation (the image found on Kleinanzeigen seems to be authentic).
