  Jason Scott (of textfiles.com) made a great documentary video about the Adeventure game. I picked up a copy at DEFCON about 15 years ago.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.getlamp.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.getlamp.com&#x2F;</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=LRhbcDzbGSU" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=LRhbcDzbGSU</a>

    Great documentary, highly recomended. Small correction: it&#x27;s not specifically about the game <i>Adventure</i> but about the genre it spawned, <i>Text Adevntures</i> (later called <i>Interactive Fiction</i>)
