- ido 10mo agoGreat documentary, highly recomended. Small correction: it's not specifically about the game Adventure but about the genre it spawned, Text Adevntures (later called Interactive Fiction)
- ahazred8ta 10mo agoThey trimmed the caving term PLUGHole down to 5 letters. O:-)
- 5- 10mo agoalso of note: the "fifty years of interactive fiction" post series: https://if50.substack.com/archive?sort=top https://if50.substack.com/archive?sort=top (much discussed on hn) or in book form: https://if50.textories.com/ https://if50.textories.com/
