Text Based Games - Analysis and Orientation.
A text based adventure game is one where you type commands to explore the game world - traditionally things like GO NORTH or LOOK. Part of the game is about finding out what is possible - how to interact with the environment you are playing in.
You will create your own text based adventure game. The game can be based on a theme of your choice.
