[Coco] Star Trek Text Adventure Game for the TRS-80 ColorComputer 1 (Coco 1)

[Stephen H. Fischer]

Can the program be ended the fastest by typing "SOS" twice?

That's how I always played it at 2 AM on a CDC 6600 Super Computer.

I had my software to test, others had plenty of time like I did in ~ 1969 before I transferred to software.
