A dead pirate game!
UPdate: On Vatera (Hungarian ebay) C16/Plus/4 titles frequently pop up. This is a strange example: some Plus/4 goodies mixed into a old PC collection https://www.vatera.hu/szekrenytakaritas-retro-pc-szamitogep-alkatresz-csomag-nma-2721687893.html
Chess Master/Mastertronic Forth Plus Super Turbo (I had the same as a kid, later on switched to more convenient HER turbo) tapes are listed.
Sure, both are a kind of retro, but probably a PC owner will not become enthusiastic because of them. (BTW the older SCSI HDDs could fit to the C64's CMD HDD controller)
My experience with my old tapes and discs from the 90s: 80-90% of them worked properly, if stored in proper dust-free and humid-free conditions (in the house, and not in the garage, at the attic, ect)). My floppy discs were even flooded once by a defective radiator, and most of them survived after some careful drying activity)
