Here on the threshold of the new year, a very Merry Christmas to all. We're still pondering what changes to make to the site - don't except anything revolutionary, but hopefully certain quality of life changes will materialise. In the meantime, hopefully you can find some time to boot up a few games during the holidays.

If you've been checking our news section for months, it might have seemed that nothing was happening and that the site was dead. This is far from the truth, as the list below will suggest. But we did have a major bug with our Systems tag which got in the way of processing much of your input. And for that I'd like to apologise.
Thanks to Mr. Creosote for fixing the bug!

Other than promising to make more frequent updates, we're also having an extensive behind-the-scenes discussion about what to do with the site in the future and how to ensure that it keeps running and how to best service its users. Maintaining CASA is voluntary work and we need to make sure that this work fits in with our admin "staff"'s other obligations while making sure that the site does what it's supposed to to. We'll never be able to make everybody happy but we'll try to cover the most important bases.

A nifty new feature has been added to our advanced search page - the ability to exclude certain genres from a search. So if you're interested in Horror games but do not want to include Type-in games because you abhorred these as a child, well, today's your lucky day! Simply choose "Genre is: Horror" and "Genre is not: Type-in" - and by the miracle of the internet, boom! 439 results for your viewing pleasure. We'd love to hear your feedback, so please head over to the Site feedback & announcements section in the forum and share your thoughts.

Finally, a nod to the News image - it's taken from the hugely ambitious 2024 C64 game Kingdom of the Seven Stones. It pleases me to no end to see such an undertaking for my favourite 8-bit machine.

A much overdue update - welcome to 2024!
As of yesterday, the Classic Adventures Solution Archive has been online for 25 (!) years. No mean feat for a small, clumsily named hobby site which was never intended to do much more than host the various solutions your truly had jotted down over the years. And here we are, several incarnations and a whopping 10,000 games later.

Most of my fellow gleeful amateur websites from that era, with all their dancing GIFs and "Coming soon" sections, have fallen by the wayside. The internet has changed tremendously and, for better or for worse, been professionalised (and commercialised) a great deal.

I'm just happy to know that there's still room for the gleeful amateurs - who, as it happens, are an endlessly knowledgeable bunch. A heartfelt THANK YOU to everybody old and new who has allowed the site to stick around. CASA is for all intents and purposes a dodo that should have gone extinct a long time ago. I'm glad to see that this isn't the case just yet.
(And the image, from a 1999 game, seemed oddly appropriate for this oddly named site)
