Quick Look: Text Adventures is a collection of three classic 1970s text adventure games. Like the original games, which were DOS-based, there are no graphics, only written instructions.
The following game titles are included:
- Colossal Cave - Explore a cave to find treasure
- Worlds Edge - Fly to and alien planet to discover a way to save Earth
- Dog Star - Escape an enemy starbase with the means to destroy them
Each game provides a set of instructions or guidelines on how to play the game. When you start a game you are given a scenario and several options; choose one of the options and, depending on your choice, other options become available.
