Wintermute_BBSDid I mention that I once wrote a very small #textadventure #game for the #Sharp #pocketcomputer models 1403 and 1248?
It's called #PocketQuest and you can get it here:
Colin HaynesPlaying Catacombs on my Commodore PET. Published by Super soft in 1981. Possibly one of the first British written text adventures.
I moved around a bit and asked for my score.
This seems prescient.

martin@kyonshi I looked around at various lists of best loved Infocom adventures and added them to my plan (https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/z1xo8c163g5bfd9p0lt7w/Adventure-game-plan.md?rlkey=5vp89hdyrymkrsij29o0hup0d&st=n9ca76cb&dl=0). I have found a friend willing to play through them with me, so I'm going to start off with another crack at Zork, invisiclues in hand - even though it's probably not the best it's just so influential and I really want that context.

Jason DyerUnexpected bonus post!
Herein: the mysterious Toshiba T100 version of PRISM, the treasure hunt game giving the real-life location of three golden keys (that have never been found).
I go into the history of Toshiba in the US and new information revealed by the game.

my exploration of the first adventure game contest continues with Horror House, a sort of adventure/strategy game where I have to use a loophole in the combat rules to win the game
also, marked differences between book copy and author intent

Dr. G. PowerI just pushed a pure Markdown text adventure: no Python, no compiler, just an LLM reading two plain text files that you can play in any AI chat like #LeChat.
Is this a good idea? Probably not! But I thought it was an interesting experiment and the way it maintains the state by printing it out seems to work... This is an adaptation of a C64 text adventure I coded quite a while back.
