These demos in BASIC can be found in the OS/8 RK05 system packs in the `RKB0:` partition.
Many of them were ported to OS/8 BASIC by DEC employee Kay R. Fisher. Most were published in the DEC publication, *101 BASIC Computer Games*. That book describes itself as follows:
>It is the first collection of games all in BASIC. It is also the only collection that contains both a complete listing and a sample run of each game along with a descriptive write-up.
The first printing was in 1973. A quite readable preserved version of the 1975 edition can be [found online][book]. If a demo is from this book, it is designated `-101-` instead of `-----` below. If the demo is from the book, there will be a page or two of useful lore, and a sample run is provided.
