jblenkle Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) There is a graphic text adventure game for the ADAM by Graftex Software called The Abominable Snowman. For years we've thought we had the complete game on disk, but as it turns out it was just a demo. The game actually comes on two disks. We've located Disk #1, but have yet to find Disk #2. Does anyone out there have both disks??? Or the complete game on data pack? Edited October 15, 2015 by jblenkle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixelboy Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 ?? NIAD? ... or perhaps adamcon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblenkle Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 No & No...the original disk we thought was a complete game came from NIAD's collection (I think...it was either him or me)...and the recently acquired Disk #1 came from ADAMCon. I was hoping someone else might have it squirreled away in their collection. ... or perhaps adamcon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jblenkle Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) Thanks! I played this through to what passes for an end, but there still isn't much to this game. I'm not sure if making different choices extends your game play, but it basically finishes saying you don't have time to go on and to watch for the next snowman adventure. There were supposed to be sequels to this, which I guess were never produced. Playing the other 1 disk version that I originally had, I saw a message at the end saying "This adventure was designed as an introduction to Graphic/text adventures..." ...so really, I guess there just isn't much to it. The 2 disk version asks you to insert the 2nd disk after only four or five moves and the game doesn't continue on much past that. But again, maybe making different choices extends your game play... I will have to play both versions now to see how many differences there are. I know the opening text and graphics are slightly different between the 1 disk version and 2 disk version. Me NO squirrel ...................... but I got lots of stuff. Hopefully, it is attached here is a 2 disk set I found.
