  45.      (Difficulty Level): Many of the  Infocom  games,  especially  the
  46.      earlier ones, were rated with a difficulty level.  The levels are

  57.  
  58. Prodct
  59.      (Product Code):  The product codes for the  games  are  given  in
  60.      this  column.  They denote the type of the game and the number in
  61.      that type: the types are:
  62.  
  63.      CS   Immortal Legends (designed by Challenge, Inc.)
  64.      IA   Interactive (Tales of) Adventure
  65.      IC   Interactive Comedy

  75.  
  76. Rel Num
  77.      (Release Number): The release number of the game.  All games with
  78.      the  same  release number are compatible in that saved files from
  79.      one release number can be played by other versions of  that  game
  80.      with the same release number.
  81.  
  82. Serial Number
  83.      The serial number of the game: note the serial number is actually
  84.      the date the version was released, in YYMMDD format.  Some  games
  85.      have  more  than  one  serial number for the same release number;
  86.      this means that some minor changes were made and the game was re-
  87.      released, but that the two versions are compatible (see above).
  88.  
  89. Z-Code Version
  90.      Specifies  which  version  of ZIL (Zork Interpreted Language) the
  91.      game is written in.  The versions are as follows:
  92.  
  93.      3    Standard Series
  94.      4    Plus Series
  95.      5    Solid Gold Interactive Fiction
  96.      6    Graphic Interactive Fiction
  97.  
  98.      If the version is postfixed with (snd) it means that  version  of
  99.      that game supports sound.
  100.  
  101. LTOI Num.
  102.      The  Lost  Treasures of Infocom package in which the game was re-
  103.      released (if any).  Currently there are two packages: I  and  II.
  104.      They have both been released for the IBM PC, Macintosh, and Amiga
  105.      computer systems.  The table contains information for all  except
  106.      the  Amiga version of LTOI II, since I haven't received info from
  107.      anyone who has it yet.   Parenthesized  postfixes  specify  which
  108.      version of a game is included in the package for the machine:
  109.  
  110.      a    Amiga
  111.      m    Macintosh
  112.      p    IBM PC
  113.  
  114.      No postfix means the same version is available for all three sys-
  115.      tems.
  116.  
  117. PI?
  118.      If the game is playable with version 3 of  the  portable  Infocom
  119.      datafile interpreter then this column contains a ``Y''.
