About this game

Adventure is a port of the mainframe text adventure Adventure (also known as Colossal Cave Adventure). It is based on Bob Supnik's DECUS implementation of Don Woods' enhanced version with 350 points. During the game, the player visits and explores a cave. The goal is to find treasure by solving puzzles. Interactions with the game are conducted by entering verb-noun commands into the text parser.

This version includes the option to set the displayed location description to either verbose and brief (normally the verbose version is only shown when entering a location for the first time), occasional offers to receive hints in exchange for points and the possibility to save.
