“Put plainly, the purpose of this project isn't to raise money (though funding isn’t a bad thing – we already started a Patreon for that), it’s to assess and enhance Conversational Adventure™ games. Last year, we launched the first of its type on Steam; entitled, “Lost Legends of Redwall™: Escape the Gloomer”. We want to make sure that we’re putting out a product that is modern, feature rich, and that highlights the best that can be done with typed interactive play. Your feedback will be invaluable towards helping us refine not only this game, but also future games and all the systems that accompany it.”

“Since this is a redux of the original Adventureland (originally released by Scott Adams in 1978), we’re not starting with a blank slate. That game, though innovative at the time and first of its kind, lacked the features of modern interactive games. Additionally, the elements of Conversational Adventure™ games – like entering full sentences, didn’t exist at the time. Using the power of the player’s imagination and typed words, Conversational Adventure™ games build immersion, uses modern language, and is designed with the player in Mind.

In the Full Version, we’ll be adding: original background art, audio narration, a soundtrack, and sound effects. We also plan on creating / refining a new ending, adding a compass UI, adding Suggestion Mode (S Mode – allows players to pick from a list of suggestions for easier play), achievements, and, of course, fixing any bugs that surface. Finally, we’ll be listening to you to see what other features are needed and make sense.”
