About this game

Adventure A The Planet of Death is the first game in Artic Computing’s Adventure series. Set in the future, it casts the player as a spaceship pilot marooned on a hostile alien planet.

To escape, you must find your spaceship and repair it while overcoming fiendish puzzles and encountering a handful of alien characters. The game uses a purely text-driven interface, with no room illustrations, and a simple Verb/Noun command parser.

Platforms: Amstrad CPC, Commodore C64/128/MAX, Sinclair ZX-81, Sinclair ZX81, and ZX Spectrum.
