I know of at least the following:

"Zauberland": German PD. I sent this to Mr. B. Newell, and he claimed
that he would upload it to if-archive. Obviously, he hasn't done this
yet?

"Stugan": Swedish. Released by SPCS. May still be available. Not too
good, IMHO.

"Virus": Swedish. Commercial game for VIC-20.

A few Swedish PD, notably one called "Bilbo". I think I will upload
these to if-archive as soon as I've got them myself. If you want
them...

Some Swedish BASIC computer magazine listings, mostly for C64 and ZX
Spectrum. Mostly crap. I may be able to submit some of these for the
C64 (on disk, by snail-mail) if anyone is mad enough to want them.

That's that...
