Macintosh SE software recommendations

[sosumi]

I recently set my Macintosh SE back up after not using it for almost a year. I plan to purchase a BMOW Floppy Emulator. Any recommendations on what softwarre to play/use?

All I have on mine is FullWrite, WriteNow and FutureBASIC. I thought I had a Star Trek game, but that might be on my Mac Plus.

What is FutureBASIC?

HyperCard!

HyperCard!

Of course! I've never made one, but it seems fun

What System do you want to run? 6 or 7?

What is FutureBASIC?

Programming software that was then made by Zedcor.

Here's an old article I found about it: http://preserve.mactech.com/articles/mactech/Vol.09/09.05/FutureBASIC/index.html

Either one. I am currently running system 7.0 because I don't have a way to upgrade or downgrade.

Cool! I'll have to give it a try, since programming applications and possibly games for old Macintosh computers sounds quite fun.

currently running system 7.0

I‘m happy running 7.1.2 on my se because of way more software options. Although you need to have maxed out RAM…

FutureBasic, HyperCard and Filemaker II are Must-Haves. One of my favorite games is Sokoban - it runs on System 6 as well.

What is Filemaker?

FileMaker is a graphical database tool to create and edit various lists for anything you can think of. I use it for inventory management…

And it’s still sold by Apple … https://www.claris.com/
