Editor note

I was suprised to find this surely once commercial game amidst many shareware/freeware games on a CD-ROM from Softgold from around 1994. On the cover the box only claims to have Tennis Cup 2 as commercial software on it ("Topshots on CD - Tennis Cup 2"); and besides that over 400 MB of freeware games and tools. We will never find out, but I wonder if this is a typical case of a company publishing a freeware collection without really having taken their time to thoroughly check the games to be free or not.
