About this game

Africa Gardens is a text-only adventure game created with The Quill Adventure Generator. Set in an old Victorian hotel, the game begins with a welcome from the management that hints at the unsettling mystery surrounding the hotel and its missing guests.

Exploration involves finding and collecting objects, but the player can carry only a couple at a time. Remembering where items were found and carrying the right object before attempting dangerous actions are important parts of the adventure.

The game includes a score that can increase or decrease based on the player’s actions, along with a save feature supporting tape or disc storage.
