Slink's Adventure Mac OS
Welcome to another installment of Geeky Friday. Today, unfortunately, it seems we’ve reached a …
Control Mac OS X – ULTIMATE EDITION – Released in 2019, this game brings a different action-adventure gameplay. With a paranormal theme, Control for Mac Action, Adventure. Adventure, TOP Games Spelunky 2 Mac OS X The sequel of one of the most acclaimed 2D roguelike platform games is finally available for macOS users. We proudly present Spelunky 2 for Mac, a game generally acclaimed by both the players and critics. Open source 10.5 or higher OpenArena: OpenLieroX: Dark Charlie 2007 Action/strategy Open source 10.3 or higher OpenTTD: Operation Desert Storm: Orbiter: Orbz: Oregon Trail II: MECC 1996 Adventure Commercial 7.1 or higher Osmos: OSX SkyFighters 1945: Otis: OttoMatic: Out of the Park Baseball 10: Out of the Sun: Domark Software 1994 Flight. Being a pixelated retro-adventure, Crypt of the NecroDancer’s Mac port is lightweight and can be easily played on older machines. Verdict: Not Demanding System requirements: OS X 10.7, 2.0 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 1 GB RAM, 1,6 GB HD space, 512 MB Video RAM.
And so begins a few hours of wasted time. Well, at least for those of us who grew up in the “good old days” of computer gaming, it may. If the above doesn’t look familiar to you, it’s probably because you’re quite a bit younger than I am :). For those who aren’t familiar, before we had color screens, hard drives, or anything resembling OS X, we had text-based computer games. Drakengard final boss practice mac os.
As you can see from the quotes above, all you need to play a text-based game are a keyboard, a screen, and an active imagination! This particular game is called dunnet
, and it’s included with every copy of OS X—I’ll tell you how to launch it in just a bit.
In text-based games, you interact with the game through a simple language parser, using two-word commands like get shovel
, dig rock
, and attack bear
. You can also move about by giving compass directions such as East
(or just E
). Based on what you tell the game to do, you’ll see a new output blurb appear, describing the result of your action, your new location, etc.
Over time, as you explore and solve puzzles, more and more of the world is revealed to you, and additional objectives become apparent. It may sound quaint and outdated in today’s world of ultra-3D high-res games such as Doom3 and Myst, but text-based games can be fun in their own way, given a chance.
To play dunnet, all you need is a Terminal window and an open mind—you’d be amazed at what kinds of images your mind can draw, given the basic descriptions provided by the game itself. Launch Terminal (in /Applications: Utilities) and type (or copy and paste!) this, followed by the Return key:
emacs -batch -l dunnet
That’s right; dunnet
is sort of hiding inside of the emacs
text editor. When the game starts up, you’ll see the output above (excluding the get shovel
bit—consider that your first clue). From this point on, you’re really on your own, but here are a few basic commands to help get you started:
help
– Some background on the game, as well as basic commands and objectives.inventory
– Tell you what you’re carrying.save
andrestore
– Saves and restores the game, so you can remember to go eat occasionally.quit
– Quit the game.
There’s no way this will replace modern gaming, but if you’re umm, of my vintage, or just want to know what we considered leading edge back in the day, give this a shot. If you find the concept of text-based gaming intriguing, then you might findA History of ‘Adventure’interesting reading—it covers the history of Adventure, the first true ‘interactive fiction’ text-based game.
And if reading about Adventure whets your apetite to try the real thing, Lobotomo Software has afree OS X version available—happy exploring!
