Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
Games were so much simpler then. I had one called pyramid, which was entirely text based and you typed commands like “walk left” or “pickup torch” to navigate through the pyramid. It was a fairly short and simple puzzle game, but because there was no internet with walkthroughs if you got stuck it took literally years before I figured it out. (stuck in a maze of twisting passages, all alike).
I had one like that on my Amstrad. His name was Alan and he was in tunnel. You gave Alan commands and he answered back. Sometimes Alan didn’t do as he’s told. I got pissed off. I typed in Fuck you Alan. You’re a dumb removed. Alan replied back “You shouldn’t talk to Alan like that”. Alan stopped working after that. Alan is still stuck in the tunnel.
Then there was Leather Goddess of Phobos: Fuck Trent. Trent is not in the mood.
