Zork 0,2,and 3 dennis? -thank you for ur contributions also.
I’m bummed that the inventory doesn’t work. In the white house, I don’t know what the GLASS BOTTLE contains. Oh, and don’t eat the garlic.
Zork, and one of the other interactive text games (Space Pirates) which I used the repackager on, both work on my Innuendo, with the exception that when the game is supposed to present a list of items after a ‘:’, as in the output of an INVENTORY command, the output after the ‘:’, ie, the actual list of items, does not apear.
Zork should be playable in spite of this if the player can keep track of everything he picks up and drops. Piracy, however, has as one of these lists the contents of the Captain’s computer screen (Menu options:) which unless you have knowledge of the game from elsewhere, renders the game unplayable as the menu options don’t show up and it’s impossible to have any clue as to what commands to enter.
sorry cheap phone and cap loks stuck on most the time wasnt yelling but thanx
HOW DO U LOAD SAVED GAME I TRIED RESTORE AND ITS SAYS OK BUT EVERYTHING I TRY AFTER THAT IT JUST RESPONDS BEG UR PARDON?
I just woke up. Why are you YELLING at me?
It doesn’t sound like you are doing anything wrong. Try a command that works anywhere like “look around” if that doesn’t work then the save and restore feature is broken on your phone.
