Pages and pages of program listings in tiny, all-caps, dot matrix type, with brief introductory paragraphs. Plus, funny illustrations of strangely plausible robots. Don't underestimate the appeal of the robots.

I remember checking out of copy of that book from the libray and typing games into an Apple II, making minor adjustments so Applebasic would be happy.
Amazon.com has some used ones listed -- even a couple listed as "new", with a price-tag to match!;)
If it's not this one, then I hope you find it eventually. I've had similar somewhat frustrating experiences trying to remember kids' TV shows and various books I read as a child, and it's always pleasantly nostalgic to finally pin something down.
