Okay, it might sound like The Fugitive, but the similarities this text adventure has with the Harrison Ford film are only on the surface. There's a wide range of different disguises to find and wear, each of which must be suitable for your surroundings if you don't want to get caught. The range of locations is pretty huge including fields, barns, towns, houses and a police station (not the best place to be if you're an escaped convict). The adventure was created using GAC, which is quite a good package as far as parsers are concerned, so the game is fairly easy to play. If you're into text adventures, this is one you really ought to check out, because it's not only a good example of GACs capabilities, AA

Page créée en 169 millisecondes et consultée 1154 fois L'Amstrad CPC est une machine 8 bits à base d'un Z80 à 4MHz. Le premier de la gamme fut le CPC 464 en 1984, équipé d'un lecteur de cassettes intégré il se plaçait en concurrent du Commodore C64 beaucoup plus compliqué à utiliser et plus cher. Ce fut un réel succès et sorti cette même années le CPC 664 équipé d'un lecteur de disquettes trois pouces intégré. Sa vie fut de courte durée puisqu'en 1985 il fut remplacé par le CPC 6128 qui était plus compact, plus soigné et surtout qui avait 128Ko de RAM au lieu de 64Ko. |
