We've added a bunch of Sinclair QL titles, and the rest (?) of the parser-based Sierra games as well. As my esteemed co-editor Alastair pointed out a short while ago [actually it was Mr Creosote, on the forum, who first pointed this out - Alastair], the early Sierra titles used a normal text input interface, and though I used to vehemently deny that they belonged here, I'll have to eat my words again.
But the problem is an interesting one - what games qualify to be included here? There are an awful lot of borderline titles, with various degrees of joystick control, graphics interface, multiple choice selection and what have you. The verdict isn't in yet :)

There are now over 5050 games and over 2400 solutions in the database. Among the games added to the site during the past few weeks are the various non-point-and-click Quest adventures by Sierra On-Line (and there I was thinking that all of their Quest games were point-and-click).
