high voltage Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Before I was made redundant, I finally finished my Infocom collection. It's been a long journey trinity.jpg.url battletech_the_crescent_hawk_s_inception.JPG.url 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
high voltage Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) I'm cheating a bit. There's one game which is a copy: ZorkQuest The Crystal of Doom. This game is unobtainable, it seems. Haven't seen it for ages on the 'bay. Oh well, should I find it one day, I will not replace it. It's been a long and expensive journey and I had enough. 90% the games include the feelies, that's the way it goes, sometimes they got used, some stuff gets lost and so on (haven't got: Moonmist iron-on, Sherlock key fob, HHGTTG Don't panic button, some maps and some paperwork for some games). Cornerstone is complete except the box Deadline and Wishbringer included no feelies (Tablets/Stone), 'Infocom from Mastertronic' games just included the instructions, and maps, very simple.

youxia Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Very impressive. If I could afford it, I would try to build this kind of colllection - text adventures, PC RPGs, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cvga Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Nice. I love Infocom games. That must have cost a couple of Zorkmid. Actually, do you have a Zorkmid? They are hard to come by these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

high voltage Posted September 6, 2020 Author Share Posted September 6, 2020 Usually, with the American/Europe version, the coin got lost. I am happy with the Japanese version, which also plays in English. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Amazing collection! Is there any way that you could dump the Infocom for the Portfolio disk? I've only been able to source Zork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
