I found this old software on a medium I don't recognize at my church. Does anyone know if this has value to anybody?

First game I ever played was on those 8” floppies. It was a turtle game where you would type in DOS commands and make it move. I can’t remember the command prompts but it was fun enter like forward 1000 and it would blast across the screen.
Logo!

That’s it! Ha ha wow haven’t seen that since elementary school.
Logo wasn't a game but a programming language.
As far as I can remember, it was both, as it was an educational tool developed to teach children the basics of programming while playing it as a game.
Good old turtle. You could also program loops, so you could make fancy shapes like circles.
That sounds like Logo
Logo ? Anyway there was a this "programming langue" with a turtle and it had like 6 commands : move forward/backwards, turn left/right, pen up/down :-D
I learned this and BASIC at around the same time.
I remember that! As others have posted, Logo.
