Every couple of years I get nostalgic and wish I could find the short text adventure CastleQuest, which existed on the CompuServe BBS but is otherwise afaik just gone ( http://www.club.cc.cmu.edu/~ajo/in-search-of-LONG0751/castle-quest/2016-08-19-email-from-michael-holtzman.txt http://www.club.cc.cmu.edu/~ajo/in-search-of-LONG0751/castle... ).
Ah well. Some things are just gone.
