Mergath Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 Okay, that should be Castle Ralf, not Croft Castle. My memory is a little rusty now a decade or so later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessMommy Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Well Mork and Mindy came to mind. But Mork was from Ork. I don't know what Zork is. I am surprised by this, Wendy. I always took you for the geeky type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris in VA Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Dana, you win for Best Sentence in a Post today! I can't read Hitchhiker's anymore without thinking of how in the game you had to really maneuver to get the Babel fish in your ear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vonfirmath Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Dh and I have a bet. Have you heard of Zork? What do you think it is? Does the word "grue" mean anything to you? Thank you for your assistance. :D Zork was a text adventure game "back in the day" I know I played some on my Commoder 64. Grue sounds like a monster. I bought Hitchhiker Guide to the Galaxy with my own money and HATED that game. I could never figure out how to get the babel fish in my ear and that really stumped me at the beginning. And I had no idea about cheats or who to go to to ask for help at that point. So the gmae was a big bomb for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Dana, you win for Best Sentence in a Post today! You had to put a bag in a place to block a drain and manage to get the dispensing machine to shoot the fish out, but a robot would scoop the fish up for disposal before you could get it. It was one of the most frustrating bits! (as evidenced by me complaining about I decades later...) Automapping and graphics based adventure games seemed like cheats when they first started coming out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingChris Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 No, I have no idea what a zork is. Maybe a website for games? I also have no idea what grue is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
