What have you played so far?But have been really disappointed by how basic and poor the few adventure games I've played so far have been. They mostly make the Scott Adams stuff look advanced.
Well, I had a go at all of the adventured games from Acornsoft - e.g. Philosopher's quest, Quondam - I had to resort to walkthroughs to even get out of the first couple of rooms. Blatantly unreasonable games both. Sphinx Adventure didn't seem much better.
The Scott Adams adventures which I'm familar with. A&B adventures which I believe are a type-in. Cute but not sophisticated. I tried Superior's 'Star Trek Adventure' - seemingly six rooms with an incoherant map and with nothing to do in them. Nearly as bad as the Acornsoft ones. ('You see a button'. 'Push button', 'What?', 'Press button','No power available..' <sigh>). Colditz Adventure seemed slightly better, but not much.
I tried a fair few more - but didn't seem to find anything better than Level 9 games. That surprised me.
