Here's a message I logged off of the Rime BBS network from Apogee's
representative that I though you might find interesting. Later,

Home BBS at 1-508-365-2359).

(There are about 8 others, but they're either not named yet, or
aren't being released until 1994)

Section IV - Not Widely Available Games
---------------------------------------
All the games in this section are available, but they have to be
written in for. The reason for this is because some of our older
games are processed differently. The orders for the older games
are done by hand, and not via the normal method. This is why we
don't take phone orders on the older games. The other reason
these games aren't widely available is that they are our first
games, and to be quite honest, they don't match up to the quality
of the games in Section One. If you wanted the shareware for
these games, you'd have to write to Apogee and ask for it. The
shareware for any of these games (and for ALL of our games is
available for $4 apiece).

The Thor Trilogy (3 games) -> Similar to Kroz
SuperNova (1 game) -> Text Adventure
Beyond the Titantic (1 game) -> Text Adventure
Word Whiz (4 games) -> Word definition Quiz
Trivia Whiz (5 games) -> Trivia Quiz

SECTION V - Discontinued Games
------------------------------
These games have been permanantely discontinued. They are
no longer available from Apogee under any condition. If you
see these games, please remove them.

Star Trek Trivia -> Paramount told us not to sell this
Star Trek:TNG Trivia -> Same reason
Jumpman Lives! -> Sold rights to another company
