Retro Word Games

[Steels]

Word games like "Borrowed Time, "Cutthroats", "Wizard's Castle", "Transylvania", the "Zork" series to name a few, so much fun. Let's hear about some of your favorite word games from the past but let's keep it to the commodore 64 and under please (Time Frame). I couldn't begin to fathom the amount of time I would spend on these games. The best way to describe them would be a "choose your own adventure" book yet one hundred times better in plot lines, story depth and pure entertainment. I am pleased to be able to offer you one of my favorite word games ever, Infocom's "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". While it has no graphics it is a killer game and very intriguing. I urge people who have never played even once to give it a shot. Unfortunately you cannot save or restore prior games on this version. Take a crack at it below (link under the game cover) and remember.....DON'T PANIC!
