Good spot :) But the download version will produce a different code anyway ;) And no, it's not a random code, although it is generated in-game based on how you play and what you achieve :)
Hey, I’m sorry to bug you, but could I ask for your assistance? USDT TRX20 is stored in my OKX wallet, and my phrase is (clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish tonight involve whip action). Can you help me transfer it to EXMO?
The first adventure game we got was Espionage Island on the ZX81. When we upgraded to the Speccy 48K, we got it again, (LOL), along with Ship Of Doom and Planet Of Death. I still have all the maps we made for them back in the 80's.
Hey, I know it’s sudden, but could you help me for a second? I saved USDT TRX20 in OKX along with my recovery phrase [ clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish tonight involve whip action ] How do I move it to EXMO?
Always excellent, and a very Happy Christmas. Ah, text adventures. A genre I really wanted to get in to, but mostly found frustrating rather than engaging. For me I generally found them to be an excuse for one increasingly obtuse puzzle after another, when what I really wanted was to take part in a well written story. Maybe I was expecting too much and obtuse puzzler was as much as any text adventure creator was capable of providing, not all of us can be authors - but a well-written MUD, especially if populated with more than NPCs.
I remember playing the count and another one i cant recall the name of on c64 cart back in the day - hours of wandering about fun lol hope santa brings you some lovely tea towels merry christmas and all the best for the new year🎄🎉 i remembered.....adventure land and it was on the vic 20......stupid brain lol
i didnt have the money for games they were something like £5.99 and that was way to much over a weeks wages and i had chip sticks and rola cola to buy with that so what i did was go the the local library , find the spectrum magazines and flick through to find a game to type in , pay 5p and get a copy of that page sometimes it would cost 15p for three pages of code go home , tap it all in playing yet another game of finger twister on the spectrum keyboard and after a couple of days have a game ..that was generally very very poor but occasionally one would be nearly good and that could be copied and sold in the playground , a bit later the library would stock cassettes that you could lend like a book and then the REAL business started !!! two binatone cassette radios linked up with the speccie cassette lead and a copy factory was made a tne pack of C30 from woolies and we were off !!
I remember saving up my pocket money and everything 4-6 weeks buying a £4.99/£5.99 game, if i couldn’t wait that long the poor mans games we’re £1.99 if I’d brought to much rola cola and sherbet dips. WHS smiths always had a good selection. Loved the cassette art, although games never quite matched the hype of the covers.
Hey, I hate to interrupt, but could you lend me a hand? USDT TRX20 is saved in my OKX wallet, and I have the recovery phrase [ clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish tonight involve whip action ]. How can I send it to EXMO?
When i finally got my arse into gear and wrote a trilogy of games on the speccy in AGD, I used the adventure A and C as the subtitle to two of the games. The legend that is Charles Cecil saw them on the psytronik stand at crash and at first confused as the artwork didnt match up, then he had questions and we had a bit of a chat about how the inspired the imagination as a kid and so I used them as a nod to that.
I'm sure i remember a text adventure creator program for the Amstrad CPC. Which would allow you to make your own text ad enture games. By Rainbow Arts maybe? Blue box.
LOVE text adventures me, from the Artic classics to Level 9 and Delta 4 games I was immersed for years, even writing a few of my own using the Quill and GAC. Now I have a brand new The Spectrum to my left I feel the urge to fire up either PAW or GAC and write something again. Been nearly 35 years............
Hello, I’ve got an issue-could you help me out? my OKX wallet contains USDT TRX20, and I have the phrase (clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish tonight involve whip action). How do I transfer it to EXMO?
I only really played text adventures, first on the ZX Spectrum 48k, then Commodore 64, then Amiga. Still play modern ones today. OG adventures I remember include Urban Upstart, Eureka (we completed all parts on the Spectrum, but turned out it was bugged, so a C64 player won that £25,000 prize), and Ground Zero. Crikey, now my memories of adventures are flooding back - Lord of Time, Level 9. HHGTTG C64 I think, disk based of course. In fact, all the Level 9 before they became CYOA type games. Infocom. Loads of them! Mordon's Quest - Mebourne House, another one I really enjoyed, esp. the 80 column presentation.
Has anyone finished this game? I have the cog and the temporal core, but I have no idea how to find (or build) the crystal. This is fantastic, and it made for a nice diversion over the holidays.
@@TheRetroShack The answer is perfectly consistent with the game. As an American I never had a Speccy (a friend loaned me a ZX81 for a few weeks) and I don't know if Artic ever ported games over to the Apple II line, but I have played plenty of games that were infuriatingly obtuse. If you ever want to punish yourself download Escape From Rungistan or Kabul Spy - they tormented me for weeks back in the 80s!
Awesome video, I liked it. Can someone offer me some advice? I have USDT TRX20 in a wallet with the phrase (clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish tonight involve whip action). Could you explain how to move it to EXMO?
This is a really fun thing! What causes items in the game to be able to be picked up? I was unable to pick up the notebook and the cartridge for a very long time. It kept saying that it didn't understand, until both were visible in the room description together.
There’s a ‘scenery’ tag that applies to things you can see but can’t pick up. But that doesn’t apply to the notebook and the cartridge. You should be able to pick them up and drop them as much as you like. Remember that you can only carry six things at a time though :)

I got stuck early on in that game... (how to get on the bl**dy boat?) Years later i find it was "board boat"!!
@@fredsmith1970 LOL. 'Wear Para' stumped me for quite a while. I died a lot.

I literally had a sheet of A4, a 4 colour Bic, and a C64 cartridge on my desk as I was watching this! 😆
Oh wow!
Found Fergus McNeil's "The Boggit" and "Bored of the Rings" very amusing.
Always excellent, and a very Happy Christmas.

I used to play Zork on the college PDP11. I had to bribe the system operator for an account.
Merry Christmas 🎄
Happy holidays!
i didnt have the money for games they were something like £5.99 and that was way to much over a weeks wages and i had chip sticks and rola cola to buy with that so what i did was
go the the local library , find the spectrum magazines and flick through to find a game to type in , pay 5p and get a copy of that page sometimes it would cost 15p for three pages of code
go home , tap it all in playing yet another game of finger twister on the spectrum keyboard and after a couple of days have a game ..that was generally very very poor
but occasionally one would be nearly good and that could be copied and sold in the playground , a bit later the library would stock cassettes that you could lend like a book and then the REAL business started !!! two binatone cassette radios linked up with the speccie cassette lead and a copy factory was made a tne pack of C30 from woolies and we were off !!

My favourite out of adventure a etc was adventure d - Espionage island. But my favourite adventure on the spectrum was Brian Howarths Circus

🎅Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone🎅
Snowball by Level 9 was equal parts awesome and infuriating
I have a new text game just released on floppy on my Macintosh SE/30. Wasn’t cheap but nice people are still making them for these old machines
I bet you entered all the naughty words and phrases. Just to test the parser, of course.
We did. 😋👍
😋
Great to see the game contains an A4 paper and not some weird letter format paper ;)

The Graphic Adventure Creator, if I recall.

Snowball, definitely Snowball but Valkary 17 is a close second. Most frustrating were the marvel ones! Never got any where with them 😢

Hi there - the solution is now provided in the download pack :) Hope you don’t hate me when you discover the answer :)

I was never any good at these games.
I have on cassette "Tur na nog" which i must have loaded twice and gave up on.
That wasn't a text adventure! It had some of the best graphics ever on the Spectrum. (Tir na Nog = Land of Youth.)
So...
What is the code? 😁
I see RTIC wasn't big on punctuation.
If you send me the listing I can port to Windows - would be a giggle to have written a game and have it ported. Just for shits and giggles 😂
