Megatraveler, there's a game I liked I haven't thought about in a long time.  Are you sure at least MegaTraveller wasn't 3.5" it was released in 1990 as far as I can tell, and that seems a bit late for 5.25"?  But I could be wrong, that's 34 years ago.

Nah, 1990 still was in the 5.25" time. They only faded from view a few years later. I remember when we bought our first 486 in... 1993? we had the choice between one with a 3.5" and one with both 3.5" and 5.25", and my dad took the one without the 5.25" drive. To my consternation, because I thought those disks looked kinda cool, and my uncle had a huge collection of games on them already.
(and for what it's worth, here is an ebay offer for a sealed 5.25" copy of the game: https://www.ebay.com/itm/235038004341)
