Gnome Ranger & Time And Magik - Adventure classics by Level 9 available for the Plus/4 as a conversion by Csabo and Pigmy

Something slightly different for today's retro heads up to begin the week. As we've recently found out through the Plus/4 World website, that Csabo together with Pigmy have converted the classic text based adventure games of Gnome Ranger and Time and Magik over to the Commodore Plus/4. As in the words of the site " It's time to convert Gnome Ranger! This Level 9 adventure is now available for Plus/4. Also Time And Magik". 

Here is what the wiki page says for these games if you've never played them before. "Gnome Ranger is a text adventure game designed by Peter Austin and released by Level 9 in 1987.The Atari 8-bit family and Apple II ports are text-only. The disk version for other systems includes still graphic images to accompany the text. A sequel was published in 1988: Ingrid's Back. Time and Magik is a trilogy of interactive fiction games by Level 9. The individual games were initially released separately in 1983-1986. In 1988 the three games were revised, expanded and re-released together as a compilation by Mandarin Software, a division of Europress Software".
