Back To the (Hand Drawn) Future? Wumpus 2000

w_8.jpg

Wumpus 2000 is a text-based adventure that the creator describes as "a souped-up version of the original 'Hunt The Wumpus' game. Explore caves, kill monsters, and find your way out...as simple as that!"

Well, maybe not, since you're all but required to get out your pen and paper and draw a map yourself (the horror!). GameSetWatch says Wumpus 2000 "is the kind of experimental text adventure which can influence wider game design concepts from its odd niche." Cartography not being my thing, I can only envision hours of frustrating game play.
