Golden Oldies: Volume 1 - Computer Software Classics is a retrospective compilation of four video games from prior to the microcomputer era: Adventure, Eliza, Life, and Pong.[1] It was published in 1985 for the Apple II, Atari 8-bit computers, Commodore 64, and MS-DOS. Atari ST and Amiga versions followed in 1986. Despite the "Volume 1" in the title, no further collections were released.

Reception

Roy Wagner reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "These games are pure and simple, yet still fun to play and enjoy."[1] Steve Panak, writing for ANALOG Computing, called the manual "superb," and concluded, "If you're interested in researching and reliving this portion of our recent history, Golden Oldies is a rich vein to tap."[2]
