Cranston Manor

Cranston Manor is the fourth entry in On-Line Systems’ Hi-Res Adventures series, following Mystery House, The Wizard and the Princess, and Mission Asteroid.

Players must enter a mansion once occupied by a late millionaire and steal the sixteen treasures hidden inside. Actions are entered through short one- or two-word commands such as “west” and “get shovel.” The game also allows saving at any point by inserting a disk and pressing a letter.

It was based on Larry Ledden’s original text adventure, The Cranston Manor Adventure. The game was released for Apple II, FM-7, PC-8800 Series, and PC-9800 Series.
