None of the disks are original. They all seem to be copied
Both the title screens and game screen s are in French and look identical to the English version except everything except 'TANDY' is in French

If they were official, I would think there's be something on the title
screen crediting the source of the translated version.  Surely all of them
wouldn't have been modified in-house by the original vendors.  If there are
no clues on the title screens, my money would be on the "hacked"
alternative.

Was there a French version of the Tandy catalog that might potentially have
listed French versions of their games?
