Phantasmagoria was released 30 years (and a bit) ago on 24th August 1995.

(I didn't have this one on my list and just noticed it now.)

I never played it, but from what I heard about it, it was very ambitious.

D#23 (2024-09-25) #ColossalCave #demo

An adventure game discussion not too long ago reminded me that this remake of #ColossalCaveAdventure exists, so I gave the demo a try.

Not much demo in that 2.6 GB download, to be honest, but enough to get a feel for the controls, which were functional enough. You look through a well house for items, unlock a grate at the end of a stream, climb down, and then the game ends as you try to proceed further.

The Colossal Cave title screen. Features a room from a mine that is presumably found deep down in the titular cave, with a lantern glowing yellow on a small wooden table.A shot of an old TV found inside the little brick well house at the very start of the game. Interacting with the TV shows you one of two videos featuring Roberta Williams: either a trips and tricks video or one going over the history of the game and its genre. Cute.Before descending into the Colossal Cave, the player has to unlock this steel grate and climb down.

Adventure game The Dark Crystal, designed by Roberta Williams and published by Sierra On-Line in 1983, is based on the 1982 fantasy film of the same name.

For younger players, a simplified version called Gelfling Adventure offered a more accessible interface.

Why do I like adventure games so much?

It's partly because at the time when I discovered this genre, it was the only one to offer strong, independent female characters who owed their salvation only to their intelligence.
