IFWiki: Adventure

Robert A. Howell's "Adventure!" (1982) for Atari. A port of Crowther & Woods' Colossal Cave Adventure. ("HOWE0301" in Culver's nomenclature.)

The game is basically Crowther & Woods' Adventure, except:

  • The "all different" maze doesn't actually have different room descriptions.
  • Aboveground is four rooms with identical descriptions, mazily connected.
  • Depositing all 15 treasures (and delivering the magazines) gives 281 points; it's not clear on how to get the last 20 points and/or win the game.
