Tonight's work has motivated me to keep learn BASIC. I do think there is some value in typing out programs from the BASIC Computer Games book, but it can be a harsh teacher. My goal is to eventually write a small text-based adventure game with an inventory.

Big fan of text-based games checking in here. I'd be interested in seeing what you come up with, since I've been a player of the original Star Trek, Hitthciker's Guide to the Galaxy and Leather Goddesses of Phobos...and if you include extended ascii with ansi, there's Tradewars 2000. Good on ya!
