Text-based Games
Text-based games are a type of game that relies purely on text to create an interactive experience for the player. While they may not be as flashy as some of the more popular games, text-based games can be just as engaging. In fact, many people argue that text-based games are more immersive because the player has to use their imagination to fill in the gaps. Text-based games are perfect for players who enjoy reading and want a more in-depth gaming experience.
One of the first text-based games was “Zork”, which was created in the late 1970s. In “Zork”, the player navigates a dungeon using simple commands, such as “north” and “south”. The game is designed so that it’s easy enough for anyone to pick up right away, but challenging enough to keep them interested. Another famous example of a text-based game is “Rogue”, which debuted at Apple Computer’s 1984 World Wide Developers Conference.
Rogue is an adventure game where the hero must complete various tasks while avoiding traps along the way. It also features a unique interface with no graphics or sounds — instead, all information about what happens on screen comes from written messages.
