I love it |
|
those games were all the rage when i was in elementary school, like choose your own adventure books. |
|
"look around" "walk north" "walk east" "take sword" the commands need to have a verb and a noun. go from there |
you can also download all the zorks for free at http://www.csd.uwo.ca/Infocom I haven't since I don't know if it's compatible with Windows XP. |
have you experienced the Blaster virus? Nico got it. She has windows XP. if you are on the network, you're probably ok. Fortunately someone on another board posted easy to do laymens instructions to install the patch, activate your firewall if not done, and erradictate the fucker. so far so good. since the bosses are gone today and tomorrow i think i will download me some Zork. |
. Go Microsoft. |

(I've never played D&D but I've read all the books my roommates have so I can make gaming jokes) |
I found the egg, the chalice, the trident, the torch, the coffin, the painting, the platinum bar, the coins, the jewels and something buried in the sandy cove, and holy shit if I just didn't remember where to get the thingamwhat that lets you cross the rainbow. Woo-hoo! I figured out the Loud and mirror rooms, opened the grating, emptied the resevoir, crossed the frigid river, got rid of the cyclops, prayed at the altar, got killed by the theif and turned into a ghost. Yes, I went and got the map, but I am remembering most of the tricks. God, I love this game. |
kazoo, could you email me? |
