Online games
When I was a kid, we used to play such BBC computer games as Granny's Garden and an adventure game called " L " Does anyone know where I can find and play these games free online - I have searched everywhere but cannot find L at all, and can't find an online version of Granny's Garden.
Please help...

Go to Software, BBC Micro on the left. Disk images, index by filename.
You will also need an emulator like BeebEm.

Granny's Garden is still being made for the PC, so 4mation software still have the copyright on the original hence it's not downloadable.

It's free.
Thanks OBonio (msg also for ACW)
I'm really not v.good - I clicked to download the BeebEm, and it seemed to have installed, however, when I click on the links to download L, flowers of crystal, etc adobe acrobat tries to read them and says the files are unreadable or corrupt... thanks for your help tho. much appreciated.
Ooh, I found a couple more as I was looking, and I could get onto them to play on-line - remember frogger, and lemonade stand? wicked!! they are on www.freeonlinegames.com look under adventure games, and scroll through the pages and you will find them!!
thanks again
