• ADVENT74 - A Text Adventure Engine in COBOL (7)
  It’s pure COBOL74 — no C, no external libraries, just ACCEPT and DISPLAY . The engine is fully data-driven, with no hard-coded logic. All navigation and win conditions are defined in two external fixed-length files per adventure. A CLIST is included to enable interactive play directly from READY mode in TK4-. The package comes with four complete adventures: Forest, Tower, Temple, and Study. By Manny Juan.

• COBCALC, a general-purpose algebraic expression evaluator in standard COBOL (21)
  Originally inspired by a BYTE Magazine article from the 1980s (likely in BASIC), it is implemented in COBOL in the late 1990s. Resurrected, refined, by Manny Juan (a mainframe programmer interested in AI) and released under the GPLv3+; it runs cleanly with GnuCOBOL 3.1+.
