Notes
TypeText
Remarks"In Search of the Orb" was bought by CRL from a freelance programmer, and they were unaware that it wasn't an original program -- until Argus sued them for breach of copyright, whereupon they withdrew the game and settled out of court (the damages they paid were said to be "substantial").
RemarksSPOT: cf. The Valley (Argus Press)
