Text Adventures

February 11th, 2005, 02:02 AM

Can anyone list some classic text adventures?
I've heard that the strange leaflet has something to do with Zork, and I'd like to play it to try and figure out the "secret code".
I'm also just interested in some other good text adventures that anyone can reccomend.
I assume that most of these old text adventures are abandonware, right?
If this is the case, can anyone also reccomend any sites to download them?
thanks.

Speaking of the Strange Leaflet, for some reason I haven't completed it but I opened the chest. What am I missing?

It's not as good as Zork, and it's more complicated but...meh.

What ever happen to the Rifts like Mud?

I'm afraid games that are devoid of any pictures do not appeal to me. I prefer more visual stimulation, such as the likes of Runescape.
