 If helpful, here is the information from the .qa file on the disk:

 {{{
     Police Quest Two
       by Jim Walls

    Atari ST Conversion
            by Corey Cole

  Version Number 1.001.006
   (double-sided version)
   Interpreter: 1.001.009
      January 16, 1989
          1:30 p.m.
 }}}

 This behavior is seen on 2.2.0, 2.7.0, 2.8.0 for Linux (Raspberry Pi) and
 Intel/Mac running 13.6.3.

 Thanks for looking into this!
