Whoa, the GUI is… intimidating.

Then I noticed the weird drawings and the subtitle is “Sorcerers get all the girls”. >> << >_>

The description says by the same guy as “The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy” which was recently recommended to me. My response was that I didn’t even know there was a game, but I enjoyed the books.

So that’s basically two negatives to one positive.

Any more info? :stuck_out_tongue:

These are text adventures. They are very funny and were developed in 1990 by Steve Meretzky. I think one could classify them as an “insider tip”. The release on GOG is a re-release. You can get more information about the game on Wikipedia:

Yes and no. Steve Meretzky co-created the “The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy” game - together with Douglas Adams.

You can still play it online:

But remember that this was a text adventure game too. :slight_smile:

I think that much goes without saying. :slight_smile:

Check out the Stories Untold Demo on GOG. Some of the later episodes can occasionally become a touch tedious but the first episode was an entertaining text adventure.

Thanks for the info!
