Krabat  author1986There are little differences between several releases of this game. The original German versions are only runnable on monochrome monitors, while the French version works with color monitors. The 0.0a version also looks a little bit different in layout from the 1.0 versions.***

F-15 Strike Eagle MicroProse1988The package indicates "1985" but this is the date of the original (Atari 400/800 and C64) versions. I'm quite sure the Atari ST version was released in 1988 or maybe at the end of the year 1987.***
