"Sands of Egypt" text adventure

#1 Post by catventure » Mon Feb 12, 2018 11:21 am

I recently re-coded a 2001 text adventure from 2001 by Ambrosine, "Sands of Egypt" in T.A.B. for Windows XP and above platform. It is now at beta stage. I'd appreciate any feedback, comments, bug reports etc.. If any forum member fancies spending some time playtesting this game please let me know by PM and I will notify you of a download link. Thanks.
