[Coco] Jake Commander's Color Trek

[Richard Adams]

Yes, Jake Commander did a BASIC Star Trek game, published in Color Computer Magazine. Don't recall exactly, but one of the first 2 or 3 issues, I'm pretty sure. I seem to recall it being called 'Color Trek'. Took a couple of days for me to type it in, back in the day.
 
IIRC, the original listing did not work correctly with a Disk Basic system; I believe CCM published an addendum later to correct that.
 
Heck, why isn't Jake on the Malted Media list, anyhow?
 
HTH,
 
Richard
