I love text adventures too. I wish they would be more popular, and I always wonder if it would be possible to create something like MMORPG based on text adventures.
Also, I think that using a programming language with English grammar is not the best idea. If anyone is interested in writing text adventures, there's a book called "Land of Lisp", that teaches you the basics of lisp on the example of creating a simple text adventure.
I think it's a very fun way to learn lisp, and to write the game, right now I'm working on my own and it's really cool =)
- soylentcola 12y agoWhen you say an MMORPG based on text adventures, do you mean something like MUD and its variants? I spent a good deal of time building areas and scripted events on a few MUD-type platforms back in the 90s but attention gradually shifted to more graphical environments for the most part and I lost track.
