CrazyChris Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I am looking for the name of an Atari 8-bit game and thought I would enlist the troops. You start off standing in front of Steps to a house. Below is a text box to enter your commands. Just tried it a few days ago, and can't find it! Thank you, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyChris Posted April 11, 2021 Author Share Posted April 11, 2021 (edited) It is neither Mystery House or Colossal Cave Adventure. Edited April 11, 2021 by CrazyChris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

advfan Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Cloak of Death? I doubt it as it has graphics and you start already inside a house, but at least you start in front of steps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, I think it may, but maybe as a text only version. I could've sworn I'd came up with a copy somewhere once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
