I was writing a text adventure like this, and I didn't know how to spell thigh (still don't as this came before Google), and since this is my homepage, I couldn't find out how to spell thigh. Lucky me, however, that this week's top 7 is related to what I began twenty minutes ago! Oh, twenty-one.

I'd laugh but... Yeah... I at least bothered to dig up alot of old systems but I never went so far as text adventures. Holy ****.

Poor Chris. He definitely deserves it though and that god this week wasn't top seven point and click adventures, I don't think I could take all the Gabriel Knight.

I think Mittenz has the right idea of how sexy text-only games would be today.

Full text games were just a product of their time that, sadly, offered a little less the mystery adventure books of the same time. After all you could take a book into the bath/bog but not your ZX81/Speccy/C64.

That last game sounds really sexy. Maybe an option could be added --

'Smells like Pizza'.

Years ago I forced myself to play through Zork 1-3. I'm glad I was a little too young for this material. Or there would be much shame.

Not that pixelated stuff was better...

I played Amnesia - a good text adventure which was the first appearance of New York city in a game.

And I loved it.

@Cyberninja good to know that getting first comment was worth posting before you actually read the entire article, dickhead. As for not imagining games with just words, it sounds like you haven't been into games nearly long enough to appreciate this site.
