About the Story

A game with similarities to the original ADVENT (or Colossal Cave if you prefer) but with many differences and an all-round tougher experience.

The game was written in CDC Pascal by George Richmond, with some help from Mike Preston. The original program, ran on a CDC NOS mainframe system. Jason Dyer aptly described it as being written "...like — the author played Adventure, liked it, had some notes — then decided to write his own game from scratch, riffing off his notes but filling in the gaps with his own imagination."

The source code and documentation is available from Arthur O'Dwyer's GitHub. A Windows executable is hosted on Dropbox.
