Kalas Puffs Expressen was also released for PC not only C64.
I have the original PC-version (on the danish version called Guldkorn Expressen it's alrealdy mentioned it was release for MSDOS too.

http://hol.abime.net/3909

Another thing that can be useful info is both the danish and swedish boxes of the game had both titles on each side of the box.
On one side it says Kalas Puffs Expressen and on the other it says Guldkorn Expressen, but they also had a little white label on the "right" version
side. The white label showed which system it was made for like Amiga/C64/PC and it also had an S or Dk on it showing in which language it was.

Added the info to the note section of both games. Thank you for the info

Spherical Worlds CD is on eBay right now: https://www.ebay.com/itm/22498609571...cAAOSwHB1gkpda
Shrink wrapped for 70 €... given the other auctions go for 300 $ it seems to be a bargain.

Seems to be a reasonable price for the game (and the box would be nice to have for HOL).

It's in UK, otherwise I'd grab it, even if only not to let the bloody Pixelssss get it

Guess who's offering the same game for almost three times the price: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/124175844390

Haha...they don't miss a beat. But by their standards it's a bargain, I thought it'd be more like 599.99...

A while back demoniac asked if we could add a Psygnosis Barbarian II manual, but 8 pages were missing and there seems to be no other scan of the manual around to verify if those pages are blank. Today I found this eBay auction for just the box and the manual for a quite reasonable price: https://www.ebay.com/itm/165914744207

Use the excess EAB donation to purchase it.

TCD · 07 April 2023, 21:44

If only I could direct the donations to such a noble cause

Abaddon · 09 April 2023, 03:41

I will pull out my boxes of manuals and see if I have it. I have the disks, but I bought a lot of loose disks on eBay years ago, so not sure I have the manual.

That would be great

Fingers crossed that you have the manual

I went through several boxes and so far nothing. I have one more box I need to dig out of my closet this weekend. Hopefully, it will be in the last box.

TCD · 13 April 2023, 07:29

Fingers crossed

Oh wow, thank you stainy

I have one person sending me scans by posting a link to a album at a picture hoster. A bit tedious to download, but eBay should be okay with that I guess.

Edit: Or you send a link to a picture host where you post a picture with your email address

stainy · 13 April 2023, 16:57

I have all the scans

expect some uploads soon.
