A play on words with

Re: MicroMUD for the C64

This goes back to the overarching question: what constitutes an adventure game?
Apart from pure text and text-with-graphics, we have joystick controlled games where you select text input. We have multiple choice games. We have RPGs with a strong adventure flavour. We have adventure games with RPG ...

Re: Adventure Challenge

Hmmmm... interesting! How about:
Terrible Doubt of Appearances
P.S. I would really be interested in an explanation of the "Ulm" one…
My thinking was that Ulm 1879 represent the birthplace and year of birth of A. Einstein.
That's right - so you're entering the kingdom of relativity :) (insert ba ...

Re: Skull Cave on the Sol-20

Thanks! I don't think we have anything on the Sol 20 at all? Or maybe I can't find my way around the database. It's a DIY-kit, right?
I took a brief look at the link - are there other games for this machine than Skull Cave?

Re: Adventure Challenge

Weeee :D
I don't know if you were obvious as such, but compared to your latest brain teaser this was at the easy end of the scale. And it's just great to have both kinds :thumb:

Re: Adventure Challenge

Wow, for no apparent reason I feel like I can be part of this again :)
Point of No Return
(though Land of No Return would work equally well, but I'd say this is more of a point)

(Pretty please let this be right!)

Re: Adventure Challenge

Wow, it's not called Challenge without a reason! Let's just say that I really liked clue 3 :D
In hindsigt, of course, the tennis picture should have been a excellent guideline. I don't know why I missed that one.
