No.
We just KF/ADF the Boot Disk in the german a1k.

Multiglobo is very curios. Only the Bootdisk is Amiga Format, all other Disks are MSDOS3.3 formatted (720KB). But it works all.
If you boot the AmigaDisk then you can load a inventory or searched for something, than it comes to ... put Disk 45 in DF0: for example. Then it loads the scene.

Multiglobo is not a Program with DataDisks or so. It belongs alltogether.
It was not something like Vista Pro3.0 were you can buy additional Maps.
I have nearly also 40 or 50 additional Original Disks for Vista Pro.
I believe Multiglobo was used in a Library or so??
I contacted also italian Users but no one knows this Multiglobo.
So I maybe have the only existing Box.
I also send these Infos to HOL but they cant use my Screenshots. Because of these DOS Disks I cant make Screenshot withn WINUAE.

Multiglobo is not a game and it is not an educational software. It is encyclopedic video database and with 3 audio cassette for learning English. It is released by BiCover.

i found a italian user that sell Multiglobo at 100€

That's what I gathered too from the info I found online. Still interesting that they created an Amiga bootdisk for it.

The first 90 Disks are encylopedia, but it also have Geographic, Mathematic Courses and also some italian parts for children. So in some parts it something like educational.
And also the english course with two Disks and 3 Audios.

Were did you found the Italian User which sell it? I did not.

I believe I bought it years ago for 100 €.

You can still image the other disks using -i4 parameter!

OK. I found nothing, but I found the Thread in the italian Community with Livio and you communicated.
Livio was the one which I am asked to solve out something about Multiglobo.
I believe the selling thread you found was the one I found in 2018.

@BarryB

Sorry I am not familar with these Codes.
I am using my Kryflux on my Os4.1 Pegasus with a gui which is called K-Copy.
It looks like X-Copy and do everything automatically to Stream Amiga Discs.
I never use shell commands.

It looks like K-Copy only handles Amiga disks which is not very helpful!

Only using DTC via shell will image the other disks:

dtc -p -fMiniglobo/MinigloboDisk002_ -i0 -i4 -l8

So the above example will create a folder called 'Miniglobo' and dump the stream files called 'MinigloboDisk002_' into that folder using -i4 which images most IBM/Atari MFM disks.

Are the disks in good condition, no mold or dirt on the surfaces?

Ambermoon's 9 disks (10 with a save disk) are practically nothing compared to some of these bad boys.

Similarly, compilations like Triple Action had 7 releases in the series and totalled 27 disks! Combat Classics had 3 releases in the series and totalled 23 disks!

HOL has an incomplete list of Hits For Six releases only having 6 of 8 releases but they total 44 disks!!

So what's the most disks in a compilation series?

If you mean Compilation Series I believe Hits for Six will be right.
Most of the Boxes have 5 or 6 Disks and there was 8 Parts in the Series.
Other Series like Diamond Pack Or Ten Star Pack have just one Disk in each Part.

Single Compilations like Action Pack from Action Sixteen (10) or Big Box 2 (12)
Lucas Arts Classic Adventures have 14 Disks. HELP! has 15.

There was also a compilation by Gordon Harwood Computers called Powerplay: Mega Games Pack that had 19 or 20 disks in it (Xenon II was either 1 disk or 2).
