Lately I've had the urge to play text adventure games, but I'm not sure what to play. I've been googling, but I'm overwhelmed by the variety of games available and can't seem to find a useful review site.<br> <br> So... what should I play? Recommendations that are clever, whimsical, literate, funny, atmospheric and captivating are a plus. I'm interested in classics of the genre as well as little known gems.<br> <br> (Just so you know, I've played two text-based games before, <a href="http://www.wurb.com/if/game/239">The Golden Wombat of Destiny</a> -wonderful!- and <a href="http://www.douglasadams.com/creations/infocomjava.html">The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy</a>, which was great but followed a touch too close to the books for me to really enjoy as original.) tag:ask.metafilter.com,2007:site.68678 Mon, 06 Aug 2007 14:48:59 -0800 games textadventure videogames warble
