Oh, wow! Memories!!!
And a Kaypro!
I remember them so well. It was just the next step from D & D , with paper and pencil and dice.
Zork was so much fun! Hmm, I may still have an old copy somewhere.
This would be so much fun to use with kids! What a learning and teaching tool!
I used Twine once on a project at work, but hadn't considered it to write games/stories.
Thanks for your reviews. I want to check them all out, but Ren 'Py is attracting me most!
I might just resurrect an old 80's machine...
All of the old Zork games including the graphical adventures are on GOG if you can't find your copy. Zork Anthology is a collection of all the Zork text adventures. The Zork games all sell for €1,49 I think it was whenever they are on sale, which GOG does quite often, so just wait for a sale and grab them all, that's what I did :)
My foray into computers started with the Amiga 500, didn't even know what type of computer that picture shows, but it looked like an old school Terminal so I had to use it here, fit perfectly :)
