NAME

adventure — an exploration game

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The object of the game is to locate and explore Colossal Cave, find the treasures hidden there, and bring them back to the building with you. The program is self-descriptive to a point, but part of the game is to discover its rules.

To terminate a game, enter “quit”; to save a game for later resumption, enter “suspend”.

AUTHORS

The game adventure was originally written in Fortran by Will Crowther and Don Woods. It was later translated to C and enhanced by Jim Gillogly <jim@rand.org>.
