I know nobody cares about the web site and its many issues, but I thought I should report this one so that it can be duly ignored:

508 Resource Limit Is Reached

The website is temporarily unable to service your request as it is exceeding its resource limits. Please try again later.

Thanks Exemptus.

They're pretty well hidden. At least I couldn't find them.

Thanks Alastair. I was unaware of the requirement to add a text file with the bug fixes. That makes sense, so I'll do that in future. For 'Halls of Death', I presume the fixes were those mentioned in the notes, but I don't know for sure, as that was a long time ago.

Downloads of fixed game images are broken if they're not in a zip file. Someone just told me that my upload of an atr disk image for The Halls of Death was broken, so I tried it myself and they were right. I've uploaded a new disk image to replace the old one, but DON'T UNZIP IT!

As I have no idea how CASA's back end is set up, here's a few suggestions that may help:

phpBB SMTP email setup

Do a Google search for "emails sent from server to gmail addresses aren't received" (or similar) and you'll get hundreds of hits that will explain how to set up SPF, DKIM and DMARC ...

It's been two years now and this issue still hasn't been fixed. I have yet another user asking me on behalf of a third party why his registration isn't working. For Christ's sake, all you have to do is to configure the server in accordance with Google's guidelines which are listed in the links I ...

I only checked the German and noticed question marks in author's names for:

• Baukis
• Klub Karisma
• Mondbasis Palindrom II
• Olga I
• Pirate Adventure

A mass edit of individual characters is madness. They were fine in the past. Surely it's just a case of changing the encoding from ASCII (or ANSI) to UTF8.

The results of Text Adventure Literacy Jam 2026 can now be viewed at the Results page . Congratulations to The Gnomish Treasury by Nell Shaw Cohen as the overall winner and Epic Expedition by dgtziea for #1 in the beginner-friendliness category. If you haven't played any of the games yet, do ...

Try Games > Browse by language and select a language such as (say) Danish or German that uses diacritical marks. Now browse through the list of games and you'll see all sorts of strange characters where umlauts or other non-ASCII characters should appear in game titles and author's names.

I should have announced that all the submissions for Text Adventure Literacy Jam 2026 are in and you can now play and rate them. Ratings must be submitted by the end of May 2026. See the url above and click on Submissions to see all the games. There were 9 entries and they look pretty good.

Hot on the heels of the two Murray Shannon games comes Homo Sapiens . As the name implies, this is set in the pre-historic age, so expect a landscape, story and puzzles appropriate for that period.

This is the 9th game from The BDB Project . It can be played online at Homo Sapiens or downloaded to ...

The BDB Project has recently released the two text adventures in the Murray Shannon series. These are The Seeds of Evil and The Horror of Goldmine City . These games were originally written in Italian by Bonaventura Di Bello for the C64 and ZX Spectrum in 1987. They have now been translated to ...

I have another user who can't register. To quote:
Unfortunately, I can't for the life of me sign up to CASA.
I'll try to get more details and send a private message to one of the admins. Isn't there anyone amongst you that can fix this ongoing problem? It's been an issue for well over two years ...
