As I know some people love looking at old BASIC text adventures, I thought I'd note any new listings that I find references for on here.
This one was previously just down as a TI-99/4A game, but actually appeared as type-ins for C64, Apple II and PCjr too.

Re: Random BASIC type-in text adventure thread
Neat. Do you know if there are any running copies anywhere?
Re: Random BASIC type-in text adventure thread
I think this is it, actually, for the C64...

In which case, it probably doesn't really qualify as a CASA "text adventure". I don't see a lot of text! Or that much adventure.

Re: Random BASIC type-in text adventure thread
This doesn't look even vaguely like a text adventure.
Re: Random BASIC type-in text adventure thread
Yeah, I agree. I've amended the entry to make that clear. There's an argument for deleting it but sometimes leaving an entry and tagging it as not really being an adventure stops someone else re-adding it later and then wasting their time researching it again; especially when it's an existing long-term entry like this one.

Thanks Strident.
Strange one. From the description, you might call it first-person-puzzle-education-non-violent-role-playing-adventure game. Difficult to categorize.
