Guides on emulating older games
The bundled floppy disks for 1992 book "Cool Mac Games Plus!" by Cameron Crotty. Third archive contains all of the files on each disk, bundled together.
The book delves into the world of Mac gaming in the early 1990s, with a rundown of the 16 bundled shareware and freeware games alongside technical info/documentation of several commercial titles and cheats/tips/tricks for some of the hottest Mac games available at the time.
There are two disks. The first one has two self-extracting archives (.sea), "Action, Jackson" and "Cool PowerBook Games", while the second has five archives: "Brain Salad Surgery", "Extra Chewing Satisfaction", "Mac Parlor Games", "RoboWar", and "Victoire". Contents are as follows:

The original upload of all the archives on both disks together (DL #3) had the nvir virus in the self expanding archives (but not in the contents of the archives themselves). This was identified by scott praed who uploaded a virus free replacement for DL #3 after cleaning with Virex 6.1 . The archives in the first two downloads and their contents are already virus free.
