Alberto Marnetto reviews the MS-DOS games on a 1989 floppy disk that came with an Italian computer magazine, including a previously unknown Pac-Man clone. The also gives an overview of software distribution with Italian magazines in the 1980s, and the quasi-legal piracy scene in the country at the time.

The Insects game is pretty good, runs fine on my Tandy 1000sx

Definitely a weird game, glad it got discovered and archived.
