Descrizione
This is a re-creation of a 1979 text adventure for small computers.
In 1979, most affordable personal computers did not have a lot of memory. One of the "affordable" ones that cost about $795 was the Commodore PET with 8K of memoryof which only 7123 bytes were actually available for a BASIC program. While large mainframe computers with 200K could run that early adventure called Colossal Cave Adventure (1976, Will Crowther) and some of the larger (i.e. more expensive) personal computers with then expensive floppy disks were running games such as Zork or Dungeon, a system without that extra hardware was somewhat limited.
Having enjoyed Colossal Cave, Roger Chafee wondered if it would be possible to create something similar to run on these smaller computers - after a couple of intense work weeks, he wrote a program called Quest. This is a re-creation of that program for Android. It shows what can be done with a bit of creative effort, even with limited resources. As a bonus, it is fun to play.
Most people can complete this adventure in about 2 hours, although it has been done in an hour, and some people haven't finished it after a day of frustrating search.
Can you find the pirate's treasure and get it out of the cave?
