Adventure 1

Adventure 1 is a video game in the adventure genre developed by Abersoft and published by Melbourne House originally released in 1984. It is currently playable on Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, BBC Micro, MSX.

Classic Adventure is a reworking of Will Crowther and Don Woods' 1978 text adventure game, Colossal Cave Adventure, which has spawned many copies and variants over the years.
The game was originally released as Adventure 1 by Abersoft in 1982 for the ZX Spectrum. It was later renamed Classic Adventure and published by Melbourne House on multiple platforms.

This game is very faithful to the original, it starts with the classic opening:
'You are standing at the end of a road before a small brick building. All around you is a forest. A small stream flows out of the building and down a ravine'.
From this point, the player can enter the building and begin exploring the cave system, supposedly inspired by the Mammoth Caves complex in Kentucky. In the caves there are some unsavory characters, magical items and treasures to collect and transport back to the well house. True to the original game, this version supports magic words like 'Xyzy' and 'Plurgh' that teleport the player between certain rooms.

The game maintains a score that increases as treasures are carried back to the well house, the maximum score that can be reached is 210, and can be saved on a blank cassette tape.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
