Anyone remember this? "Adventure" This simple text game captivated millions and was the precursor to what is now the gaming entertainment industry as we know it. No glitz, no glamor, and no graphics, just words to stimulate the imagination and lead you on to ever increasing adventures. And oh so frustrating at times! This simple game would challenge you to think outside the box to solve problems and move on to the next room where another puzzle awaited you. From the moment you set out from the end of the road you are drawn into an imaginary world of exploration and intrigue.
