Just a quick mention that since it is October, the next running of the IFComp has kicked off.
75 games with a text-emphasis, about a third of them parser if that’s specifically your thing. Lots of variety including someone finishing the Infocom sequel to Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and a ZX Spectrum game that was too large for 1987.
The “other bit of game history news” is a part of an excellent history series by Ethan Johnson on Youtube. He’s just reached Hunt the Wumpus so I thought it would be of interest for the readers of this blog (Wumpus specifically starts around 8:30):
The rest of the series is good as well!
