Text Adventures

Late in Term 3 we took a look at Text Adventures or Interactive Fiction. These are interactive adventure computer games where the player uses text commands to control what the character does. The player is given only a small amount of information to begin and need to work out which commands work and which don’t. From here it is up to them to explore the game.

We looked at Zork I in class and may look at it more in Term 4, but if you want to play it over the holidays or anytime at home, here are the two links. The first one has a range of Text Adventure games you can try, but I suggest you stick with Zork I and explore it more and more. The second link has the Zork trilogy (I, II & III).
