- Hi text adventure lovers,
-
- I just uploaded the following files to ftp.ulowell.edu, directory /pub:
-
- deepspac.zip Deep Space Drifter
- dunj422.zip The Dungeons of Dunjin
- pcadvent.zip Colossal Caves, 551 points
- winadv20.zip Colossal Caves as a Windows 3 application
- pcdungeo.zip Dungeon, which later became Zork
- pcworld.zip World, a science fiction text adventure
- unnkul12.zip Unnkulian Underworld: The Unknown Unventure
- unnk2v20.zip Unnkulian Unventure II: The Secret of Acme
-
- and for those interested in writing text adventures:
-
- world1.shr C source code for pcworld 1/2
- world2.shr dto 2/2
- tads110.shr TADS: The Text Adventure Development System, used to write
- deepspac, unnkul12, and unnk2v20 above
-
- You can't list the directory /pub on ftp.ulowell.edu, but when you know the
- file names, you can download from it. I think they will move the files to
- the msdos/Games directory after checking them for viri.
-
- I collected these files from various sources. They are not necessarily the
- latest versions available, but the latest versions I have. I hope it helps
- that they are together now in one location; maybe the authors can put
- updates there, too (assuming, hopefully, that ulowell is also glad to have
- them and will keep them there - I admit I didn't ask them).
-
- Enjoy! (If you get this twice: I just got "error in posting" and retry)
