Return To Pirates Isle PHM 3189
Nice. Scott Adams was my favorite programmer when I was 13. I had
"Adventureland" and "Pirate's Island" in BASIC for the PET -
still
have the original tape. It gave me a life-long love for Interactive
Fiction.
My favorite Scott Adams adventure is Ghost Town. I just loved the "feel"
of the game, staying up late at night trying to solve it's riddles. Who
still remembers the red herring "purple worm"? :)
I'm going to have to revisit that some day.
BTW, Scott Adams can be reached on the internet. Do a web search on
"Adventure International" and "Scott Adams" and his website and
e-mail
address will turn up.
