Continuing worst game ...

Posted by Tricob on .
So now you enter in the command "Fight", which in this case is "1". It says:

>Hit goblin and sword breaks. Must find another.
>
>Facing goblin. Fight or Retreat?

If you miss the goblin, your sword stays together. But every time you actual successfully hit the goblin, your sword breaks, and you have to retreat again to get another sword.

I believe this game was called "Fight 'em", even though all you fought was one goblin. Never played such a bad game in all my life.

Gotta be this *terrible* RPG game that only accepted numbers as its input. There weren't any maps you manuevered around in or anything. Here's an example of the game screen:

>I=5
>S=5
>D=5
>
>I?

At this point, you're supposed to enter a number between 1 and 4. If it's any less, it'll say that you need to put in more points than that. If it's any more, you won't have enough points left for S and D to get to the actual game, so you'll have to "Break" the game and restart it.

So let's say you enter in:

>I? 2
>S? 2
>D? 2

You get to the actual game. It says:

>Facing goblin. Fight or Retreat?

Except when you enter in the word "Fight" or "Retreat", it says:

>?REDO

Which means you're supposed to enter a number. So, which number is supposed to be Fight and which one Retreat? No way to know but just to guess. So you enter in:

>?1

It says:

>Cannot fight. No sword.

So now you gotta sword, only you can't because there's no Search command. Just Fight and Retreat. So you enter in Retreat (a.k.a. "2") since you can't fight. It says:

>You trip over abandoned sword, pick it up.
>
>Goblin followed you.
>
>Facing Goblin. Fight or Retreat?
