ParticleGirl's Journal: I love rogue and adventure

I have got to say that, after all these years, I can still sit down to adventure, the forerunner of zork, or rogue, the forerunner of dungeons of doom, and have a blast. They just don't make 'em like they used to. Now they're in java instead of DOS.

Damn you!!!!

Now how do you expect me to get any work done?

I used to spend hours playing rogue...

...me, too, and now I still do. It's really becoming a problem... I just need to limit myself by time instead of # of games; that way I can't say, awww... well, I died prematurely so that doesn't count...

I thought I had kicked the habit until I saw your journal entry.

8^) I thought I was the only one that did that!

Booo!

I thought 'adventure' was the old atari game "venture". You had me all excited on playing it :-(

I have an atari 2600 at home that I play atari's adventure [com.com] on, but I'm definitely more of a fan of the original. :)
